Because of the effects of disorder on the indigenous inhabitants and the slave trade, the inhabitants of the Caribbean are mostly Afro-Caribbean, largely originating in West Africa. Because of this there are several similarities between Caribbean and West African cookery. Europeans included their own distinctive cuisines. That there was considerable immigration from India, so that some countries like Trinidad and Tobago have large Indian populations. Because of this, other dishes with curry flavors, and curries of various kinds are common in the Caribbean, particularly. One of the Islands’ favorite dishes is ‘curried goat’.

But it could be argued that neighborhood ‘jerk’ seasonings (a blend of native herbs and spices) is very curry-like in nature, and the spice blend resembles curry spice combinations, but without the turmeric of course. Therefore, that the adoption of blends in the Caribbean is probably not surprising.
