I grew up in the Dominican Rep. I remember when I was younger this was the food of poor people (or so they used to say) Today, only those in better economic standing can afford what twas the only protein affordable to the poor. Now the protein by choice for the destitute few is the "artificial" chicken, grown in 45 days...WTH!!!

[@oasisfullfilled7617]

Haitians do have electricity. Maybe people in the poor dont have. Just like any other country. There are poor parts and great parts. Unfornately society always talk about the poor and bad parts

[@diadlo13]

Only place in the world that they make it like that? I think not. I know for a fact its not.

[@diadlo13]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/pX_MY5aVedmnbpo Le fumoir d'antan situated on Iles de la madeleine in the province of Québec. EXACT same process.

[@diadlo13]

And yes they soak it in salt before its just not shown in this short video.

[@tonyrod4388]

Well, to Canadians, their backyard is the world, so by idiosyncratic reasons he is ABSOLUTELY right.

[@72markko]

@@diadlo13 tnx for info )

[@steveboy7302]

Didn't native Americans do this

[@andytaylor4446]

Of course…that’s who taught the French settlers this method, although, the French would do have been used smoking too as that was the way to preserve food for ocean crossings.

[@Cock_Diesel]

how come they are so cheap in third world countries yet canadians pay 30 bucks a killo??????????????????????????????????

[@wfmk]

They’re just a lazy version of Manx Kippers
