Antigua & Barbuda’s Best Market Food Tour In St. John’s!!

I'm in Antigua and Barbuda to explore the most amazing Antiguan Food, People, and Culture around the island. I'm starting off at Saint John's Market! I'm trying everything from sugar cane, to pepperpot and funghee, and Goat Water.

The first thing I saw and heard was not Antiguan. Antigua is now a country housing a mixture of dominant nationalities and this video shows it vividly.

[@njemilenantan2269]

Apparently Antiguans are declining but that is because they are all leaving to go elsewhere.

[@listenup2882]

Dominant? How so?

[@rissa2380]

​@@listenup2882 You can tell you are entering a Dominican (Republican) community before you even see the people, or know you've entered a Guyanese cook shop just by looking at the daily menu. It seems Antiguan people are simply quiet people, even when they are disgruntled. So unfortunately, its very easy to get drowned out.

I miss been there. Hopefully I can visit my aunt, brother and rest of my family next year. 🤫, would be a surprise.

[@franciscreditrepairagency]

As an Antiguan I am so proud to see in the first few minutes of Antigua video of Davidbeenhere hardly any Antiguan were visible, fried dumplings are called bakes which is not an Antiguan name, goat water has in cinnamon which is never Antiguan and Barbuda's goat water. I literally since 2022 contact David's been here invited him to Antigua and Barbuda accompanied by me but to this day no response. I'm happy to see most people he met in Antigua and Barbuda were Jamaicans and Guyanese. Davidsbeenhere it is time I stop watching my favorite show indefinitely.

[@rissa2380]

Im Antigua, and I share the same sentiments.

[@Davidsbeenhere]

This is just 1 video out of the series. To get upset about the diversity on your own island in the first few minutes of 1 video is surprising to me. By far the majority of people in my Antigua and Barbuda series are locals, however I absolutely do show the diversity of the island, since it also has a lot of Trini's, Guyanese, Jamaicans, Virgin Islanders etc. The market was very diverse and we literally just walked in filming as we went. Do you want me to fake the footage or do you want me to show you the reality on the ground as I experienced it? If this is genuinely your "favorite show" don't you think it makes sense to give the rest of the series a chance, and also to recognize that I show my videos as they actually happen, I'm not editing a narrative.

[@franciscreditrepairagency]

​@Davidsbeenhere David the disappointment I expressed have nothing to do with you pertaining to the pith of my point. However, separate and apart, I contacted you numerous times and told you I would fly to Antigua and Barbuda to show you around. No response from you. Do better than that. However, the part about what I am seeing, you have no blame. That was not meant for you. I see you enjoyed the produce my father gave you and welcomed you to Antigua and Barbuda.

[@Davidsbeenhere]

I understand, but I just see the diversity of the island to be a huge strength. Also respectfully, I don't go travel with random people on the internet, this trip was sponsored by the Board of Tourism of Antigua and Barbuda. These productions are a lot more of a formal setup than it might seem. On an aside, everybody I met in Antigua was incredibly kind hearted and nice. It is the friendliest Island and the people are some of nicest places ever met by far. Everybody was super welcoming in the Market and which one was your dad?

[@franciscreditrepairagency]

What I am suggesting to you is to respond to subscribers but you do have the right not too. My point pertaining to the pith of my comments is that there is an entire country problem in Antigua and Barbuda where the local folkways, culture, traditions, foods and so forth are becoming extinct, you do nor know this. It is why you have no clue that the 50,000 population back then is now more than half from other countries with no actions being taken to secure the local culture, even if you allow freedom of movement in the Caribbean. I am not against other countries living or visiting, I an against the fact the country is losing all its tradition, culture, norms and folkways without any kind of actions to preserve locals ways. Your responses are showing you are not comprehending my points. As you touched down, it is not Antigua and Barbuda culture you see but those from Jamaica or Guyana. This is what you will see every place you go in Antigua.
