Last Saturday, a friend of mine told me to buy a
beef patty on February 23rd because it’s Jamaican beef patty day.
Well, that day is finally here. Today I headed to my local West Indian store and
bought myself two beef patties, two cocoa breads and a cola champagne.
Beef patties are most likely the number one food
item that Jamaica is known for.
Here in Toronto, most convenience stores and grocery stores sell them.
If you attend a predominately West Indian church, you can
count on someone selling them after service.
For years I always bought Allan’s patties until I was
introduced to Michidean patties. Ladies and gentlemen…I never went back.
Michidean patties became my new favourite brand. If you haven’t had one, you
need to try one. You won’t be disappointed.
The night is still young so why not head on over to your
nearest West Indian store or convenience store and buy yourself a beef patty.
What is your favourite brand of Jamaican beef patties?
What do you eat your patties with?
