They eat complex carbs like breadfruit (known in Martinique as "l'âme veritable" meaning "true/veritable soul"), yam, dasheen, cassava -- carbs that the body takes longer to breakdown but which are better for it than simple carbs like "pasta", "white rice", "pastry", "white sugar" that are sweet to taste but destroy us ultimately. This is the metaphor of this podcast. pigtail & breadfruit is a podcast about a way of seeing life & the world that is WHOLE & realistic, not always "sweet" to the ear but ultimately good for the soul & for the belly(brain). Queen Zora Neale Hurston called our culture "realistic suggestion" & she was right!
