Marshall's Foods

When it comes to choosing Marshallese top three foods, selecting is not so difficult. That’s because the coral reef produces not so many kind of plants because of severe environment, being scarce vegetation. Foods usually selected are Coconut, Breadfruit and Pandanus.

 

Coconut is the most popular fruit in the southern island. It can survive even on salty land in several-month-lasting dry season.

 

Breadfruit originates in the south pacific. It tastes gentle with no strong smell something like bread or potato. Pandanus tastes like a pineapple or a mango. People are making preserved food or fermented food, in addition eat row.  　

These plants are not originally present in the Marshall Islands, carried from the Southeast Asia or other south pacific through immigration for long period. Some Studies explain that people migrated to a new island for settlement, loading a canoe with seeds and young plants.
