Jamaican patties. You can pick up a big box of them frozen from almost anywhere (at least where I live) and heat them up in one minute. I mentioned to a Gen Z in the fall that this got me through many a college all-nighter and noticed when I was at their place last weekend, they were all stocked up! Feels good to pass on the torch…
I had to go look those up, I had not heard of them They look tasty but, damn they are a little pricey, at least in my area. Are they pretty good sized/filling?
The classic ones are beef inside, and while not huge, tend to satisfy my food cravings, and I'm not a little guy. They often have jerk chicken and veg options too if you look around, and if you're in an actual Jamaican neighbourhood, you can find a big variety at restaurants or even corner stores. (I grew up in Toronto and they were just everywhere for whatever reason.)
There's also some strategy in terms of whether to get the spicy or mild ones? Spicy makes you eat slower, which can be good to regulate one's tendency to gorge while cramming.
Thanks! Some good info to know, when I go to try them!
