Maybe a trip to Brooklyn? Errol's Caribbean Bakery in Prospect Lefferts Gardens and Tropical House Baking in Crown Heights both make them. I think Tropical House does them all year long, and you get the novelty of buying them through a bullet proof glass revolving window.

No way. NYC is a gun free zone.

That's a myth, and up until pretty recently Crown Heights was a tough neighborhood.

Wow. This is a real advertisement for a real product. I would have bet a week's pay that this was some kind of minstrel show-esque racist joke. Get it together black people.

Well, for the existence of canned processed cheese, I chalk it up to Jamaica's climate. It's hot, and its humid, not conducive to turning milk into cheese or keeping cheese from spoiling. But Jamaica was colonized by Europeans, whose home climate was quite conducive to making cheese, and they all got used to eating it, and when they got to Jamaica, they still wanted it. Refrigeration was still a long way off, and to this day its still spotty there compared to other places, so once processed foods took off, someone doctored up some cheese to make it melt better and last longer, then stuck it in a can and heat treated it to make it last longer still, and shipped it off to Jamaica.

Why it became so ingrained in their food culture as the perfect companion to sweet spiced bread as a holiday dish, I couldn't even begin to guess.

To be fair, in Yorkshire we pair Fruit Cake (and Christmas Cake) with Wensleydale Cheese; the sweet, creamy cheese cuts through the dense spice of fruit cake and creates a big party in your mouth

That might be the exact origin of it then actually. The English were the ones who colonized jamaica, it's not unreasonable to assume someone from yorkshire came over and brought that tradition with them
