Well, that certainly sheds some light on what Original Spanky was asking but....
I had no clue about any article discussing food and...he said "patsies" which only confused me further.

I do know about "pasties" and you are right about how many shops in the UP sell them. I didn't want to end up being anyone's "patsy"

BTW. Any good Jamaican driver can get to Benta River Falls from Negril in around 1 and a half hours.
