It seems like it was started early in the history of Wikipedia (2006, still early), but each country developed their own cuisine page. I tried to fix this article. But there is no point in even trying. There is no such thing as one Caribbean cuisine, as its so diverse and different. For example Anglo Caribbean food in the southern Caribbean (which is already very diverse) is very different from Latin/Spanish derived food in the Spanish speaking islands. Thats the reason it was never developed beyond starting a stub. Its very difficult to cover all these islands food within one article which are already diverse within. It also covered in each countrys page, region and in this Americas Food section <a class="external free" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cuisines_of_the_Americas">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cuisines_of_the_Americas</a><a href="/wiki/User:Starbwoy" title="User:Starbwoy">Starbwoy</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Starbwoy" title="User talk:Starbwoy">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Caribbean_cuisine#c-Starbwoy-2017-07-09T21:26:00.000Z-Please_delete_this_article_-_its_Pointless" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">21:26, 9 July 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Starbwoy-2017-07-09T21:26:00.000Z-Please_delete_this_article_-_its_Pointless"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Starbwoy-2017-07-09T21:26:00.000Z-Please_delete_this_article_-_its_Pointless"></span> </p> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Grueslayer-2017-07-15T11:55:00.000Z-Starbwoy-2017-07-09T21:26:00.000Z"></span>The article is bad, but that doesn't mean the lemma is unimportant. What I would expect from an article "Caribbean cuisine" is how Amerinidian cuisine, the cuisine of the colonial powers, the native cusines of slaves and contract workers and influences of 20th century immigration blended into Caribbean cuisine in general, and how which influences led to the development of individuel national or cultural cuisines. And I would like to know which plants and animals are pan-Caribbean ingredients, and which are native and which were brought by whom.

I agree that the article is bad, but as a list page for quick navigation to the pages for the cuisine of specific countries/islands, it is useful. I did have to delete links to Louisiana creole cuisine and Low Country cuisine (ie, coastal South Carolina cuisine); it's ridiculous that anyone put those in the list, obviously are NOT by any stretch of the imagination types of Caribbean cuisine. If someone wants to put some properly sourced text about historical connections between these two regions and the Caribbean in another section of the article, that would be fine, but listing these two non-Caribbean cuisine traditions in the "By Location" section along with all the actual Caribbean locations is entirely inappropriate. I also had the link to Mexican food link to the section in that article on the Yucatan, since that is the only area of that vast country with is in the Caribbean region, and the only cuisine that really could be called Caribbean. <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/2600:1700:D6E0:65E0:E0B0:3A31:8BDC:DBEC" title="Special:Contributions/2600:1700:D6E0:65E0:E0B0:3A31:8BDC:DBEC">2600:1700:D6E0:65E0:E0B0:3A31:8BDC:DBEC</a> (<a href="/w/index.php?title=User_talk:2600:1700:D6E0:65E0:E0B0:3A31:8BDC:DBEC&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="User talk:2600:1700:D6E0:65E0:E0B0:3A31:8BDC:DBEC (page does not exist)">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Caribbean_cuisine#c-2600:1700:D6E0:65E0:E0B0:3A31:8BDC:DBEC-2020-05-26T19:28:00.000Z-Starbwoy-2017-07-09T21:26:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">19:28, 26 May 2020 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-2600:1700:D6E0:65E0:E0B0:3A31:8BDC:DBEC-2020-05-26T19:28:00.000Z-Starbwoy-2017-07-09T21:26:00.000Z"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-2600:1700:D6E0:65E0:E0B0:3A31:8BDC:DBEC-2020-05-26T19:28:00.000Z-Starbwoy-2017-07-09T21:26:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Caribbean_Cuisine" data-mw-thread-id="h-Caribbean_Cuisine-2021-04-21T16:18:00.000Z"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Caribbean_Cuisine-2021-04-21T16:18:00.000Z"></span>Caribbean Cuisine<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Caribbean_Cuisine-2021-04-21T16:18:00.000Z"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Talk:Caribbean_cuisine&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Caribbean Cuisine"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-bar"><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-metadata"></div><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-actions"></div></div></div> <p><i><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Markcymru-2021-04-21T16:18:00.000Z-Caribbean_Cuisine"></span>"Over time, food from the Caribbean has evolved into a narrative technique through which their culture has been accentuated and promoted. However, by studying Caribbean culture through a literary lens there then runs the risk of generalizing exoticist ideas about food practices from the tropics. Some food theorists argue that this depiction of Caribbean food in various forms of media contributes to the inaccurate conceptions revolving around their culinary practices, which are much more grounded in unpleasant historical events. Therefore, it can be argued that the connection between the idea of the Caribbean being the ultimate paradise and Caribbean food being exotic is based on inaccurate information."</i> </p><p>What on earth does this paragraph mean?
