About this listen

This is a fascinating episode concept comparing Jamaican and Mexican cuisines! I love the creative matchups you've put together. Here are some thoughts on your pairings:

**Strong matchups:**
- **Jamaican Patties vs The Wet Burrito** - Both are handheld comfort foods with savory fillings and satisfying textures
- **Jerk Chicken vs Tacos** - Two iconic preparations that really represent their respective cuisines
- **Curry Goat vs Street Tacos** and **Carne Asada Tacos vs Jollof Rice** - These feel like they'd spark interesting debates about bold flavors vs. comfort
- **Burritos vs Mofongo** - Great comparison of hearty, filling dishes
- **Jamaican BBQ Halal Jerk Chicken vs Ceviche** - Nice contrast between smoky/spicy and fresh/citrusy

**The dessert round is fun:**
- Jamaican Pudding vs Fried Ice Cream
- Churros vs Grater Cake
- Toto vs Jamaican Black Cake - These traditional sweets could make for a great discussion

**Observations:**
Some matchups seem to favor ties because both options are excellent (which could make for good diplomatic discussions). You might want to consider what criteria you'll use - authenticity, flavor, accessibility, cultural significance, etc.

What angle are you planning to take with the episode? Will you be tasting these head-to-head, or discussing them more generally?
