«Siempre había comida, la comunidad siempre tenía comida, aunque solo fueran raíces». Los tubérculos, como la malanga, son alimentos básicos fundamentales para el pueblo y la cultura puertorriqueños. Muchos de estos alimentos siguen estando disponibles en los supermercados, pero «no son lo mismo que los alimentos recién sacados de la tierra o directamente del árbol».
“There was always food, the community always had food, even if it was just roots.” Roots crops, like Malanga, are fundamental staples for Puerto Rican peoples and culture. Many of these foods are still available at supermarkets yet they “are still not the same as the food you take fresh out of the ground or straight off the tree.”
