Being Jamaican…I gotta leave Roti to the Trinis and Guyanese. Their Roti’s are just top tier. It’s that direct Indian influence.
Ayeee 🟢⚪🟡⚫🔴
@Adam A. but still a lot of Roti is served in Jamaican not as a household thing but as a street food at alot of side shops in the capital
When I first tasted it I was like what is this and my father told me and said he had this a lot growing up even. Even thou it’s hardly made now in modern day Jamaica
I have to try a Jamaican roti but I have tried it from Guyanese and Trinidadian and I’ll give it to Trinidad
Thank you!!!
Guyanese Roti is 🔥 my college roommate was Guyanese and one time she brought me a plate her mom made; and wow, I’ve never found food that tasted like that since 😋
Surprisingly the man was the most judgmental. How do you say something was delicious then give it a 6? I’m hungry for Roti now.
That’s what I’m saying. He was hating 🤣 like really a 6? You could’ve gave her a 7.5 or a 8 at least
Caribbean men are so judgemental 😂😂😂
right !!!
Claude need smaddy buss up him mout….
Why are you surprised? I’m not 🤣
There is always that one person that swears they are killing it but get scored low and they try overly critique others. Claude was that person this round lol. Congrats to Miss Daena on the win and the humble nature she displayed :).
I am Trini and no disrespect to the Jamaican lady but curry and roti is two different things. She kept going on about the burning etc, that is not roti but the filling you put in it. Roti is the actual flatbread. In Trinidad we do various types- breakfast roti is usually Sada eaten with a vegetable talkarie* Dhalpurrie is usually wrapped with curried or stewed meats and a side & Paratha(buss up shut) is broken up so dipped into the curries and veg. Popular at weddings & celebrations such as Divali. It has others like Dosti, pepper roti etc but the top 3 are the most common.
All this.
It hurts my heart when people act like roti is one specific thing. Or don't understand anything surrounding it.
Reading all that making me miss my aunt's sada with baigan choka. And she don't know anything about slight pepper lol 😆 😂 😋
Thank you. I was confused because I consider roti just to be the bread. The other stuff can be eaten with roti... but actual roti is just the bread. Having said that, I'm up for a doubles throwdown.
Agreed. Poorly done episode.
You can clearly see she is a BLACK Jamaican woman. What you think she know about Diwali, Dosti an Dhalpurrie? - stop it, you're comment is too arrogant. Jamaica has it's own specific dishes and roti isn't a specialty. Yes the woman got the meaning wrong, it's just the bread- but everything else you mentioned is very INDO-Caribbean specific. Hell, even most Indo-Jamaicans don't do all that.
Its trinis, or maybe black trinis who a spread wrong info...telling the rest of the Caribbean that roti name Roti skin. Why didnt you guys correct them. I can tell you that if you give Guyanese buss - up- shirt, they will ask you if you head mad, and if you dont know to make roti.
And its Trinidadians who first sold roti and curry wrapped up for workers in Trinidad, so blame yourself. Selling Indo originated food at restaurants and take out places is a more recent thing in Guyana, except the snack which were always sold at the roadside by any race.
Claude wasn’t being fair. He said Daena’s dish was good then turned around in the same breath and gave her a 6🤣
Exactly!
He knew it was going to beat his dry rotis , rated lower on purpose
Badmind
@@Mamignonne100 clearly you didn’t watch the video. He loved hers
He was though? A 6 isn’t bad
I liked Addis. I thought she was going to rip on everyone, but ... she didn't. I love that she gave a 9.8. Great episode and now I want to try their roti. Looked delicious.
Right, I agree. I think they should bring more people on that give an honest opinion of the dish, without saying something back handed.
I thought the same thing! So proud of her!
She seems like a very honest person who wasn’t caught up in trying to win.
They should have more than 3 more to make it more fair
Roti and Doubles should be strictly left to Trinis and Guyanese folls
A Roti contest and not a Guyanese in sight 😫🇬🇾 ya'll need a redo on this one.
and the original recipe owners, the Indians
This competition should have been between a Trini, Guyanese and Surinamese. It would have then been an honest representation of a Caribbean roti competition.
I need to try Trini. Love Surinamese Roti
So true facts 🇹🇹🇹🇹
The three countries u listed only 1 is in the Caribbean check ur world atlas
@MelodyHoefdraad they're still considered part of Caricom and take part in CPL. Please check YOUR facts.
@@hamidahamida5950 Guyana & Surinam are located in South America with Caribbean influences. Just because they headquarter Caricom does not make those countries geographically Caribbean.
A roti episode and you have no Guyanese people? We need a part 2 😂 🇬🇾🇬🇾
I was saying the same thing and I am a bajan ...they need a do over lolll
I know right!!
EXACTLY WHAT I SAID.. THIS AINT NO TRUE CONTEST WITHOUT GUYANA PERIODT
That's what I said! I was like "Send Jamaica home and bring us a Guyanese auntie!"
But then she won, so I had to be silent. lol
Guyana and Trinidad. Those are the 2 that needed to the there. The rest of us just make roti and curry. It's not in our blood.
That “Jamaican roti is the best” was a braveeeeee comment as a Jamaican who lived in Trinidad I’ve had some nice rotis in Trinidad that blow Jamaican roti out of the water
As a fellow West Indian, I appreciate your objectivity. Jamaican cuisine is so bomb but roti is not one of you guys’ specialities. My jaw dropped when she said that Lmaoooo
Mhm mhm mhm mhm
😂She just wanted to push Jamaica, even though she well know our roti can't stand a chance
@@jasminespencer2872 dys what I saying. She hadda be saying that in confidence because she prolly ain't taste ah roti from here so
@@OfficialSpiceJam You're right we aren't known for that but I think her opinion is still valid.
I’m Pakistani and my mum makes roti all the time but I’m sooo happy to see that carribean people also make and eat roti and that it is also apart of their culture this is something amazing I found out today and I also enjoy Jamaican patties and Jamaican curries I find that carribean food is like our food very hearty filling and comforting
Yes a lot of Caribbean (even African countries like Kenya) food is heavily influenced by south Asian cuisine cuz of slaves being brought over from South Asia. Surprised how many south Asians are ignorant to this.
Indentured workers were brought to the Caribbean from Indian. They introduced Roti, curried goat and weed
You mean the English speaking islands your foods are nothing like my own Haitian no similarities most Haitians don’t even know what a roti is
@@lailaayan306 lmaooo weed
@@rini9325 lmao it’s funny but true, the sadhus got kidnapped by the British and smuggled that shit over on the boats 🤣
I like how the girls gave there most honest opinion and didn’t lowball just to win ❤️
I'm American (but my parents are Jamaican) and I feel as though they should have had more Trini and Guyanese people in this video. Those countries make the best roti in the Caribbean and that's what they're known for. Roti is not commonly eaten in Jamaica, it's not a staple of Jamaican cuisine. Also, having Indo-Caribbean people in this video would also be great, they are the reason why roti was brought to the Caribbean in the first place.
facts!
100% agree 🇬🇾🇹🇹
I'm Jamaican and that's literally what I just said
👏👏👏
Well said!!! Let’s blame the producers and casting crew who clearly aren’t Caribbean to know who to cast for this SMH
A Trini enters the chat: Look, allyuh! First of all, allyuh get we flag wrong! 🇹🇹 dis is we flag!
Next up, roti and curry is two different tings.
And den, why you didn’t get some actual Caribbean nationals from Trini, Guyana and Suriname for this.
I will end with this…Steups! 😂
I thought was just me....🤣 the flag bugged me and I was like who exactly is a Caribbean there?
My thoughts exactly
Yes trini come tru cause that was rel foolishness 😒
Amen brother Amen
Came to the comments just for the flag discrepancy!!!!
Everyone in this video looks hydrated and well-rested! Skin is glowing!!!! 3 beauties!!
Trinis and GTs make the best roti! I’m from SKN and I would never pass on my trini people roti no time. My best friend brings me roti skins from Trinidad every-time she goes down for a visit!
CAN YOU PLEASE BLIND FOLD EVERYONE AND MAKE THEM TASTE THEIR OWN FOOD WITHOUT TELLING THEM
Ohhhh I like that idea 💡
Im sure they ask but not everybody agrees to it
They've done that before, I think it depends on the dish and whether or not all the contestants agree to it
They do that sometimes. I feel like sometimes they do but it’s probably hard getting people to agree to do it
No because when they do, a lot recognize their own and give it all high marks, then it throws off the scale.
I love Addi’s attitude. She’s not gunning to win nor does she believe that her dish is the best and unbeatable. She’s just there to have fun and eat some good food
(for clarification, none of the contestants in this video had that attitude, but often there is one person who does and then they unfairly rate the dishes of others. I’m just saying Addi is an absolute vibe)
Exactly
Claude is that 1 person
Girl barely cooked thats why, she didnt mind if she won or lost 😝 i appreciated her positive attitude throughout though
Last time I ate a curryroti from a Jamaican there were carrots in it. I'm Trinidadian and I can't make roti, but I love eating it from Ali's or other East Indian restaurants.
plssss make more of these videos i cant get enough, ive watched all the food swaps like 3-4 times already haha
They are describing the side dishes and not the actual roti 🫓
Right?! I was thinking the same thing. All this talk about the talkari and hardly any mention of the actual roti itself.
You're so right. That's why you need a real TRINI in the mix.
I thought I was only one. I felt dumb lol.
In Trinidad at least in experience, we refer to roti as the whole dish and the actual roti as roti skin
But they definitely needed to talk about the roti skin some more, as that is essential and the essence of the dish
Even though I'm a Jamaican, I still think Trinis probably do better rotis cause of the strong Indian influences there. But I love roti regardless of where it's made, especially when it's nice and flakey. Loved the video too, the contestants were pretty respectful of each other.
Yup trini and guyaneese
I'm a Bajan and I agree
@Adam A. thank you
But there are a lot of Indian influences in Jamaican food
Try a Guyanese roti!
Rayyyy.... Antigua in de dance.... Repping Caribbean pride! This was a fun one...🇦🇬🇦🇬🇦🇬🇦🇬
As a Portuguese Indian (Mom), mixed with Trini, Colombian and French (Dad)... I have to say that Trinis got the best roti. Our Jamaican fam has the best tamarind chutneys. Pair them all together and get a united food coma.
This was one of the most respectful episodes yet. No one was hating. I loved how the women both went up for each other's dishes.
Except Claude's scores, totally disrespectful ("Delicious! 6. 😐") 😆
@@LG_Hakubi 😅
@ElleLueeze Yeah, no one was "hating," but Claude, in my opinion, cheated. He knew that second dish was better than his, claimed it was delicious, then gave a low rating, and an even lower rating for the second dish he tried. Such crap. What a loser, to cheat like that. Glad his low-balling the girls didn't give him the win.
Homeboy was definitely hating 🤣
@@backpacker2773hard.. he kept eating it called it good and then delicious and then said 6 lol
At 0:13 the flag shown is not the flag of Trinidad and Tobago. Our flag shows a diagonal from left to right like this emoji 🇹🇹
Grateful for the Caribbean representation in these challenges though.
Wonder if we can do a pelau next 😂
Omg!! I would die, a Pelau challenge would be amazing
EXACTLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY... THAT FLAG WAS SO WRONGGGG... AND I GOT SOOOO PISSSSED
We need a vincy on this fr fr
It hurt my soul to see them use the wrong flag and I'm not even Trini. 😮Lawd. Fix it‼️
THANK YOU!! I didn't think anything until she said that her mom was Trini. Someone truly messed up with that flag!!
As an Indian it’s interesting to see this interpretation of roti 😊 more you know 😊
I'm there with you
Say more. Do they have it wrong or is it just different ? I’m not from the Caribbean , I’m just curious.
Read the caption... Caribbean Roti...also roti has been eaten in Egypt from time in antiquity
@@jankam2418 well as an Indian, it is a bit different than Indian roti, they didn't got it wrong tho. It's 90% similar in my opinion.
@@thelivingroom6172 no, they aren't. Roti is Indian only and Egypt isn't the only old civilization, Indian civilization predates Egyptian.
I'm Jamaican hooray Deana. You made us proud. I actually made it once for the first time (a lot of work) it turned out amazing my family loved it. We Jamaicans are sure great cooks👍🏆✨️
Addis is jamaican and trinbagonian. Yet when you introduced her the flag in her bio one was jamaican but the other isn't the trinidad flag. This is our flag 🇹🇹. Also should have had more caribbean born and raised people. As first and second generation caribbean people they're sometimes uniformed . Also a Guyanese person would have been good to add to the panel .
There* uninformed*
@@CrownofRa it would be "they're" as in "they are uninformed"". Not "there".
@@CrownofRa is someone used to doing proof reading ...😂
(tongue in cheek rhetorical banter).
Have a Blessed Up weekend to all x
@@daniellevaughn4598 thank you 😊 , for the corrections. I was annoyed writing quickly and very carelessly. I have amended my statement
I was looking for this before I commented about it lol
Roti in the Caribbean should be between Trini and Guyana 🙈 I live in Jamaica and their roti is different and only a very few makes a nice one. I’m from 🇬🇾 but TT is a winner for me.
I was just thinking the same thing! This should've been between Trini, Tobagans, and Guyanese.
I agree!
PREACH!
Roti is life in Grenada
I never even knew Jamaicans made Roti. I have never even seen roti on the menu in a Jamaican restaurant in NY or Jamaica. What makes their Roti different? How is it prepared? Now I need to find me a place that makes Jamaican Roti so I can try it.
I love how everyone was sp respectful....I also never had roti. But I love a good curry
As an Indian , Feeling so pumped up to see so many cultures have food similar to us. Even the curry - like chana masala etc - made me nostalgic.
It’s in the Caribbean because of East Indian indentured servitude. A lot of us Caribbean people, specifically in countries like Trinidad, Guyana, Jamaica, St. Vincent are Indian descent or mixed with Indian.
@@b.m7640Roti is also in Africa...just goes by different names
As a person who grew up in the caribbean. The Windward Islands st. Lucia, Barbados, st. Vincent , grenada, Trinidad, guyana are very under represented in a lot of “Caribbean” videos.
Especially when we share a lot of similar dishes which some other islands, Jamaica for example don’t make. So a lot of the “caribbean “ videos are very hard to relate to sometimes.
Yes, i agree 100%. I was gonna comment exactly the same thing. I personally couldnt identify with the look of these roti.
Y’all have to remember this is filmed in the US. Jamaicans make up the highest immigrant population of all black people in the US. St. Lucia, Grenada, these populations are already small, let alone the number of immigrants in the US. Cocoa butter def seems to be trying their best.
I agree 100000%
@@rocksta201012 I’m aware of the differences in populations. But it doesn’t mean they’re that hard to find as ppl have been migrating and settling for years.
It happens alot here in the UK where they usually use one country to represent/classify the entire Caribbean when there’s a lot of things the rest of us don’t relate to.
I also love watching Cocoa butter’s content so I’m not dragging them just saying the “Caribbean “ content is usually very un-relatable.
@@theislandgiraffe Actually in most of the US they are hard to find outside of the NY Tristate area and FL. In my experience Jamaicans and Haitians are the Caribbean cultures you can find all over the US
*A SIX??!!!!* After you said all those good things? Smh that’s wild 😂 4:21
Next time they should have people from Suriname 🇸🇷 and Guyana 🇬🇾 as well.
Love this episode I feel everyone was respectful to each other and they judge according to their taste buds, so congratulation to the winner You did your thing, it's not necessarily say it's where you from you make the best roti. I think it have to do with the individual person who is making it. There's a lot of people who cannot cook certain food properly from their homeland.
Guyana 🇬🇾 and Trinidad 🇹🇹 could have a challenge on roti Alone…. No need for curry.., then you will know for sure!Throw some Dahl puri in and we all winning 😋
I'm Jamaican and when I saw your curry I'm like "yes, THAT is what curry is supposed to look like." You represented us well. 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Thank you!...🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
You're welcome 😊 And my older sister's last name is Cunningham! That's so ironic 😅 She lives in Fort Lauderdale. I'm in Mandeville, Manchester. Did you grow up in Jamaica? If yes, where?
Yes but Trinidad roti is the best
Jamiacan do not I repeat do not make roti like a Trini. Never have and never will. I can't believe they have a Jamiacan there. This is blasphemy seriously
Yasssssss that mi ah seh🤣😍
I love how they all respected each other..
I love roti I’m from The Bahamas my aunt makes it good but the best one I had was from my 9th grade teacher from Trinidad she used to make it for our whole class when we do good on our school work.I fell in love with it from then
As a Trini....I think they should've had more Trinis and Guyanese here in this video. No disrespect to the Jamaicans, nothing's wrong but I feel like we need more variation in the Caribbean themed videos, especially with the fact that Trinis and Guyanese have it on lock when it comes to roti
Channel is Buzzfeed. Its not a black owned or Caribbean owned Channel. They probably just hire two token black people.
exactly! idk why they need to have a Jamaican in ALL of these videos!
Addis was a whole vibe. you knew exactly what the food was like with her reference to the frosted mini wheat 😂
I’m Jamaican and Guyanese and I feel like there should of atleast been one Guyanese candidate, I feel like Guyana and trini make the best roti
The love they showed each other ❤
Good effort by everybody. 😋We all have special touches BUT I'm from Barbados🇧🇧 and for me, generally the BEST roti is from Trinidad🇹🇹 and Guyana🇬🇾. Would LOVE tho to taste Jamaican roti esp after watching this.
🇧🇧🇧🇧yessss I’m from barbados as well and I agree. I also enjoy our roti as well. I hardly hear about Jamaicans doing roti, I definitely think Trinidad is the best
Yes, Nikki we got nice one in Barbados too but lol my favs locally come from guess who? Indian, Trini & Guyanese living here. I also make an excellent curry but learned how from a Trini.😁 Those indo roots, man!
🇧🇧🇧🇧yass
I think Cocoa Butter should have done some research. People from the Caribbean ARE NOT called 'Caribbeans'. The proper terms are 'Caribbean People' or 'West Indians'. UPDATE: THEY CHANGED THE TITLE OF THE VIDEO.
Where did they call them Caribbeans
@@taylorbeaugard2456 It was the title before. They just changed it, I guess after being corrected. They also had is throughout the video as subtitles.
Is it really that serious? Never heard the older folk complain about this
@@lalalove9953 Yes it is. It's respect. Just cause YOU never heard people complain that doesn't mean people don't. Cocoa Butter understood its importance, hence they changed the title to the correct term.
True, I've only heard American people it just people living in America use that term
I gotta learn more about Carribean culture. These people are rad!!!
Lol a suh we tan. Tek ova anything wi inna. Wi just blinkin nuff and talented hahahaahah. ❤️❤️❤️❤️🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Let’s gggooooo with the roti & curry🫓
Love y’all but WHY 🇬🇾 not represented?
Y’all couldn’t find one of we? We everywhere
🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾FACTS
Yes I was expecting allya in there
my thoughts exactly
We make the best roti
Exactlyyy🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾
correct me if im wrong but that is NOT the trinidadian flag😳 i was mad confused when addis said she was half trini because that is not how our flag looks. the black and white lines are supposed to be diagonal🇹🇹🇹🇹 other than that i loved that the caribbean nations got a chance to show our culture, its much needed❤
You are not wrong at all. I said that as soon as they presented the young lady.
I said the same thing & went straight to the comments to see if I was tripping
Janine you are correct my dear. I knew something was off with that flag
I just noticed 😳 wowwww what a failure
Nope you’re right. I think that’s the Thai flag or something. @cocoabutter you got the Trini flag wrong ya’ll
When i saw the contestants from Jamaica and Antigua I said to myself, they real brave to challenge a Trini in making roti. lol. Only to realize that the Trini rep is not really a Trini and doesn't know how to cook coz she had to ask her Trini cousin on the phone how to cook roti and curry🤣🤣🤣. This is what you call a failed contest.
The Guyanese and Trini rotis are what I know and love.
We needed some Trinis, the real pros at roti, that's our dish after allllll
I’m saying ! 🇹🇹
Real pros at actual roti are actual south Asians who made the dish lol 💀
Antigua in the building for once🥳🇦🇬 but even I was wondering why his roti looked like it had grilled chicken and was dry🤣
😂😂🇦🇬🇦🇬🇦🇬 I made mine the first time recently but it was way better looking than that. I wish i had my family that could’ve shown me
🇦🇬🇦🇬🇦🇬🇦🇬 but why is it grilled 😂
i was like “okay sir that chicken look likkle dry doh do antigua so” 😭 but at least we were shown for once
We put that delicious layer of seasoned split peas in the center. It's a pain to roll without popping but omfg it's amazing.
I'm shocked that the roti itself doesn't have that split pea center tbh. It's rare for me NOT to see that but maybe because I'm used to home cooked roti
I should add that my mom side of from trini.
Slight tip: if your curry isn't thick enough, remove the shrimp from the sauce and continue to cook the sauce down then add the shrimp back in.
Antigua an roti in the same sentence never heard that in my life 😳😳😳😳 where is Guyana doh 🤔
I don’t know for anybody here but I just know Trinidad 🇹🇹 does make the best roti in the world!
how come more than India where it came from?
@@usnasi4439 exactly lol
Trinidad makes the best roti in Caribbean. But nobody can beat the champions and creators of roti Aka east indians in india. India does the best roti PERIOD.
@@usnasi4439 lmao I know right, it's best say Trinidad does best roti in Caribbean not the world. 😂
I've been to Jamaican too many times to count and I'm Guyanese. Roti was not the thing that kept me going back. Plus, who says you have to eat Roti with anything? Roti is dish by itself, then you can add whatever side dish you want to eat it with. Y'all need a part two with the real Roti connoisseurs.
Come tru Daena!!! Love the unity in this though. Competitive but not disrespectul unlike the saltfish one
Thank you...🇯🇲
Roti contest and no Guyanese 🇬🇾 in sight?? 👀.. are you having a laugh? 🧐.. this need a part 2 man 😴
Right I was looking for the Guyanese person
I said the same thing !
Right, I was looking for Trinidad and Guyana.
Why are ya'll so vague with grouping all Caribbean people together. You get Roti from someone from Trinidad/Tobago or Guyana. Full stop. If tried what some other islands try to call Roti and..... no. Also, we have different kinds of Roti. And why do you use so many Americans to represent Caribbean countries?
we need a redo 💯
Now I want some roti. I’m very impressed by this episode, because i still can’t make a perfect roti. I’ve been practicing for years . I consider myself a pretty good cook, I love to eat, I learned how to cook from my Caribbean mother, aunts, and grandmother because I would not stay out of the kitchen. I almost caused an emergency trying to make scrambled eggs one Sunday morning when I was two, because I was hungry and my parents weren’t getting up fast enough...that’s how much I love food...and I can’t make perfect roti by any means. I commend each and every one of them, they all looked excellent.
Jamaican ppl can mek Roti but nuh really mek Roti more than so. Trini & Guyanese probably mek it the best💯need a part 2🇬🇾🇹🇹
The title - we never refer to ourselves as "Caribbeans" it's "Caribbean people" , or "West Indians"
That isn’t the Trinidadian flag. Would love to see it corrected to the actual flag which is this : 🇹🇹
I wish they had a Guyanese on the panel. GT roti is typically made slightly different, so I think it would’ve been nice to see their method being tried
🇯🇲💃🏾🇯🇲 You DID make JA PROUD Deana! 🇯🇲💃🏾🇯🇲
Many thanks!!!🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
@@daenacunningham3256 - Thank YOU! 🇯🇲🤗
🔔 IMMEDIATELY subscribes to your channel to support!🔔 🇯🇲💪🏾
What flag did they have for Trinidad in the beginning???? Whichever country that represented was not Trinidad. This is the flag for Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹
i was wondering if i miss something XD
y'all couldn't find not one Guyanese?
They need to come back and try this again.
I agree.....even though my roots are Jamaican, I think the Trinis and Guyanese have us beat on this one, although growing up a neighbor of ours who was Jamaican Indian, made a real good Roti.
I had no Idea indian food is so well traveled...very interesting.
This video did not give what I thought it was going to give lol…every island has their thing and roti belongs to Trinidad 🇹🇹. A lot of the “Caribbean” island videos don’t really highlight other islands. I love Jamaica, but come on, since when they specialize in roti over Trinidad?!
It's just who made the better dish not the country
@@raziyahall9662 Yeah but Trinidad makes better roti than Jamaica (overall). Roti is not commonly eaten in Jamaica but it is in Trinidad.
never only roti i want trini or guyanese
Just like how Trinidad and Guyana and other islands have Indians in it so does Jamaica every Caribbean island have Indian in it, and therefore they're going to bring their culture with them and their food which include roti so every island do make roti.
@@Life-nb9zl I understand. I’ve been to Jamaica several times…all I’m saying is that Jamaica is not the only island in the Caribbean and that other islands should be highlighted too.
I love the lady with the yellow shirt her energy was nice and refreshing
That was a nice one. People actually have constructive feedback. And not sounding Ike they were hating...
I love when the Caribbean is represented, but I hate when our diversity isn't. This is the reason why when I say I'm not Indian, bur caribbean, I'm not believed. I'm disappointed that not atleast 1 indo-caribbean person wasn't included in this. Also, disappointed Guyana was not included in this.
Also, that's not even the Trinidadian flag.
The younger woman looked as though she might be partially of Indian descent. Second, this is a channel about the BLACK diaspora. So naturally it’s gonna feature black people.
I've come to terms that most of these platforms are not meant for indo-caribbean people even when they showcase indo-caribbean cuisine.
Same, and Suriname.
@@rocksta201012 please stop
i like how they're all color coordinated . did they plan that?
I’m surprised there were no Guyanese contenders. Them amd trini’s have the best roti and curry combinations
This was SABATOGE. EVERYBODY KNOW TRINIS GOT THE BEST ROTI!. Daena said 7 BUT she KNEW it was a 10. And y'all see how she was gonna steal the pumpkin recipe too. What Sprangalang say "Jamaicans make a lovely jerk, BUT TRINIS GOT THE ROTI CORNERED!"
And don't forget Guyanese roti it's amazing 🇬🇾
Jamaicans make great Jerk, curry, rasta pasta, etc. Unnuh just have roti. 🇯🇲🇹🇹
You mean Indian ..
@@PrincezOSO Technically yes, But Afro Trinis are the Best because we go the MOST Indians in the Caribbean teaching us.
How come they never put Guyanese🇬🇾 on this show roti is a Guyanese think and we are from the Caribbean too. I just finished making roti too🙄
Exactly 🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾
Guyana is not a part of the Caribbean. It's in South America.
@@slimthickaz. Guyana, officially the Co-operative Republic of Guyana, previously the colony of British Guiana, is a sovereign state on the northern coast of South America that is culturally part of the Anglophone Caribbean. we are considered a Caribbean county u should Google it
@@slimthickaz. Guyana is part of the Anglophone Caribbean. It is part of the mainland Caribbean region maintaining strong cultural, historical, and political ties with other Caribbean countries as well as serving as the headquarters for the Caribbean Community (CARICOM).
@@slimthickaz. The country's history is much more Caribbean by nature than it is South American. One reason for this is that Guyana was once a British colony, like many of the Caribbean islands. No other South American countries were ever British colonies and Guyana is therefore unique in this sense. (Fresh off google ) do your research
This needs a part two. When I think Roti, I think Guyana and Trinidad. Doing a Roti video without them in it, especially the Indian ones, is like doing a jerk chicken video without Jamaicans. This get a pass cause of the mixed girl who let her Trini friend help her. Jamaican roti look banging though, but as others, from Trinidad and Guyana said, roti is just the name of the flat bread, it can be made in many ways, some without curry.
I have never had Roti but this stuff looks very good!
Roti episode and no Guyanese? This episode needs a redo
Get a Guyanese person to bring their roti!
someone else mentioned that they were talking about the sides/filling. i thought this was a roti skin video tbh (which now i want)
shout out to addis tho bc my mom is Trini and my dad is from JA, too
Can't remember her name but the one who said "burn your curry" had me. Yesssssss! She knows her shit!
Indeed!...& thank you. 💛🇯🇲
the pumpkin and shrimp with roti that my mother made the other day was the best🇬🇾🤝🏼

Dry out the pond lmaooo 😆😆😆
Fadda lawdddd why you so girl??? 🤣🤣 the WAY I just buss ah scandalous laugh!!! Ah weak!!

I SCREAMED
Man, I love roti so much. Best roti is made by people from Guyana and Suriname. Also, love Caribbean representation even though my representation is the Antilles 😅
Loved the ladies in this. Genuine and honest. The dude, not so much
Thank you!...every story has to have a villain.😉
I trust Addis opinion of Daena’s roti than Claude since she is actually half Trinidadian.
Claude, I’m happy that you were representing Antigua & Barbuda 🇦🇬 even if you didn’t win. Our rotis look better but it’s ok.
Caribbean Roti is beyond the best🤤 so good!
I’m glad the girls felt like both of their dishes were good❤
No Guyanese tor competition, I call shenanigans
Sis from Jamaica is very honest happy she won . Bro is straight up a hater!
Thank you.🙂
Im a trini and Jamaican and im addicted to roti. Trinidad 🇹🇹 would always have the best roti imo
As a Jamaican I am happy for the winner however I also believe that Trinidadians make the best roti it's in their blood like Jamaicans make the best ackee and saltfish every island has its specialty...if you want a REAL competition have a contest on who makes the best stew peas.
Im Nigerian … but a roti competition with noooo Guyanese people? Na that’s not even right 😂😂😂. I’m speechless.
