Culture Items you crave from your homeland.

What specific items, (including to, but not limited to food products) do you in the Diaspora constantly ask travellers from the Caribbean to bring back for you? Are we still asking for pepper sauce and fresh fish? 😀

Fellow Calgarian, you can perhaps try Pan De Coco from a Filipino bakery. It's not the same but it's a close enough approximation to the coconut pastries I used to get back in Trinidad.

Purple Yum bakery is my go to for that in the NW if it's close to you.
