Method

1. Captain William Bligh was chosen to lead an expedition to the South Seas to bring the breadfruit to the Caribbean.
2. His devotion to the breadfruit saplings and neglect of his crew’s water needs lead to the famous “Mutiny on the Bounty” on his first attempt. Cast overboard; Captain Bligh made his way hundreds of miles to safety in an open boat.
3. On his second attempt in 1793, he sailed into Jamaica’s Port Royal Harbour with a ship so crowded with beautiful leafy breadfruit saplings that the Jamaicans rowed out toward “the ship that has bush.”
4. Today large, lush breadfruit trees grow throughout the Caribbean, bearing the football-like starchy staple that has kept hunger away from many a door. Breadfruit may be difficult to find outside the Caribbean.
