Well my friend, if you didnt know, in the late 1700s (1797) when the Spain still controlled Trinidad and was under treat of a british invasion, the Spanish governor (Chacon) invited all the catholic planters from the other islands to come settle with their slaves in Trinidad with a promise of free land. The majority of the caribbean islands at that time were french speaking, so the names and culture were the same. The main language in Trinidad at that period with the influx of those many peoples was french or french patois up until the 1960s. that is why we Trinis also call avocado zaboka.

As a Jamaican I’ve never seen callaloo cooked like that it look similar to a Nigerian dish, hopefully one day I’ll get to try it and see the difference. Much respect trini massive 🇯🇲🇺🇸

[@gothtrini]

We use the entire vegetable. The top are the leaves & the bottom we call dasheen, similar to a Yam.

Its very similar to African callaloos but even better with crab 🦀 😋

The eastern Caribbean make callaloo this way, not only Trinidad; it’s only Jamaica that calls bhagi, callaloo. Trinidadians do make “Jamaican callaloo” but we call it bhagi.

I'm Asian American and whenever I go to Southeast Asia and see Western tourists try foods like Roti Chennai or different Thai, Malaysian or Indian curries and see them lose their minds like it's the best food they've ever had I always chuckle and think "damn, imagine they had some buss-up-shot and Trini curries, or bake and shark, smoked herring and tomato bake, boneless chicken roti with pumpkin, doubles, aloo pie etc - all of that Trini food blows everything they had away" 😂 I feel like no White people get exposed to Trini food and I always laugh because I know the TRUE KING of DERIVATIVE Indian food, and it's not in Southeast Asia, but rather the Caribbean!
