#TOBAGO #Products #PLANTAINBread


Another attractively packaged product Made in Tobago with Love. 

Tobago is the place to sample new things. Have you ever had Plantain Bread before? This was my first time and I must say, it tastes really good. I often hear of customers looking for bread with a different taste than boring, regular flour bread. This should definitely satisfy them.

It would also be nice to know some of the health benefits of this option for the health conscious... 
Going to do some research...  

Excellent, Plantain flour is a healthier substitute for wheat flour and the all-purpose flour.

Plantain flour is:
  • Rich in iron, Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), carotene and other vitamins. 
  • Lower in calories than the regular all-purpose flour. 
  • Low in fat, with just 0.3g  of fat in a 150g serving compared to all-purpose flour that contains 2.6g of fat in the same- size serving. (Its low fat content makes it perfect for people suffering from cholesterol related ailments like diabetes and obesity.)
  • It doesn’t contain gluten which is the main protein found in wheat. (There are also a number of other reasons why wheat is becoming less popular.) 

Please be advised: I just observed that the ingredients site flour as the main ingredient so information pertaining to Plantain flour may be irrelevant. It does contain Plantain so added vitamins and minerals may exist.

While we  are on the topic of Charlotteville.  I took this picture using my  phone's panoramic view on  my birthday last year :) This is Fort Campbellton,  Charlotteville, Tobago.  It must have been the perfect day because this picture is perfect. Fort Campbellton According to visittobago.gov.tt this is NOT a fort despite commonly being called "Fort Campbellton". It is in fact a Battery. Batteries were positioned in various bays where sugar was loaded on the island. This battery of two guns was erected in 1777 during the American War of Independence when American privateers were raiding British islands.

Tobago's natural beauty and unique culture have helped to shape the character and a number of artwork pieces of Trinidad-born, Tobago-bred artist Nazim Baksh. Nazim moved to Louis Dor, Tobago when he was 6 years old. Living in “country”, as locals fondly call the rural Windward side of the island, has left him with a number of fond memories of life in the village and at Delaford AC Primary School. He has a very vivid recollection of a number of entertaining episodes of an exciting yet very simple life in the countryside. Having excelled at the Common Entrance examinations Nazim was awarded a pass to attend the prestigious Bishop’s High School located in the main town of Scarborough. To ease the burden of travelling the long distance he and his family relocated to urban Tobago. Therefore a variety of experiences spanning over 30 years of residing on the both ends of Tobago have afforded Nazim the opportunity to observe, share in, and depict Tobago’s culture vibrantly thro
