When I was a kid I used to love shopping with my relatives in Jamaica, looking at all the products and foodstuffs not seen in the US, looking at the differences and the similarities. It amuses and annoys me to hear people talking about Jamaica with Insight (Into What's Wrong With Its People, no less) who've obviously never set foot off a Sandals resort, let alone into Coronation Market.
Maybe next time I hear anyone pontificating about anywhere they visited in that particular smug way, I should ask what shopping centers they went to.
