Stamp and Go

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stamp and Go and callaloo fritters

Stamp and Go is a fish fritter made with salt fish in Jamaican cuisine.[1] It is part of a Jamaican breakfast.[1] It is referred to as one of the original fast foods in Jamaica. The unusual name is supposed to have derived from the 18th-century British sailing ships. If an officer wanted something to be done in a hurry the order was "Stamp and Go!". Bite-sized fritters are often served with tangy dips. Larger ones are popular for breakfast and were often used as provisions for travellers.[2]
