The arrival of ackee in Jamaica

In Jamaica ackee is one half of the Jamaican national dish, Ackee and Salt-fish. The ackee was brought to Jamaica from West Africa in the late eighteenth century. Ackee was imported to the Islands as a cheep source of food for the slaves brought over from West Africa to farm the sugar crops in the Caribbean. In most areas of the Caribbean the fruit of the ackee is not eaten. It is only in Jamaica that Ackee is popular as a edible fruit. In recent years the popularity of ackee and salt-fish has increased as visitors to the Island are introduced to this dish and take home a taste for it. >   Fresh Ackee Cleaned 7.5 per poundClick here to enter our secure website   Fresh ackee is available for sale. the price of our ackee will be 7.50 per pound plus shipping and handling.
