It's interesting hearing about the Syrians on your site. I'm of guyanese background and my grandfather was also Syrian. It seems like I know so much about Indians, Africans, Portuguese, Chinese and know nothing about the Syrians. I've learned that there used to be lots of Syrians in Guyana at one time who were merchants to Guyana and were very good at commerce, but may have moved on for bigger markets, maybe such as Brazil and other places.

They sell some nice sweet tasting ones in Riddley road market in London, however they are quite pricey and they only have them at certain times as they are seasonal. Lovely pic :-) Hey Chennette,
