I am Puerto Rican, I swear!!!

Ok let me explain, I was born and raise in New York. My Parents are both from Puerto Rico. So Even though I was born here I consider myself Puerto Rican. I love my culture, I can hold my own on that dance floor as far as Salsa is concerned and my spanish is not so bad considering my parents only spoke to us in english, but there are somethings that some people consider the mark of a true Puerto Rican and here I tend to fall short.


So here it is for all the world to see....

1. I don't like Pastelles or alcapurias
2. I don't eat mangos or kenepas
3. I don't eat Monfogo or sankocho
4. I don't eat Flan or Farina
5. I don't drink Mavi or Coco Rico

Side Note: ( not sure I spelled these right)


The list could go on and on but these are some of the few that my hispanic and even non-hispanic friends tend to flip out about.

" Your not Puerto Rican" thats what I get every time we have the "Food" discussion.

Then I feel like I have to go into defense mode to prove my Puertoricaness- ( i know thats not a word but its my post)


So just cause I prefer cheese cake to flan doesn't mean I am not Puerto Rican, I just hate FLAN!!!!


So what do people expect you to eat according to you race that you just don't?


I know I cant be alone in this...

I'm first yippee!!

Well for me it's not so much what I don't like to eat....but rather can I cook it!! I am not a true Bajan to heart (some would say). My culinary skills are not up to par. I was born in Barbados, but left when I was like 8yrs old....HELLO I was not thinking about cooking at that age, in a way I wish I was, a lot of our more traditional dishes I cannot for the life of me make come out right at all!!

This is to the shame of my mother and grandmother!! :(

~Smooches~

If those are the true marks of a Puerto Rican then call me Miguelito. I'M A PUERTO RICAN!!!!! I love pastelles, mangos, mofongo and flan.

Well then I must be hispanic because I love spanish food and I am a "lightskinned" ROFLMAO African American woman, so I guess you hvae alittle of that in you to.

P.S. WHy do we associate food with the texture of our hair, color of our skin or the music we listen to.

Just because a White guy listens to LL Cool J doesn't mean he is black.

Girl keep being proud of who you are.

@ Bajan Queen - thats a whole other post. I can cook but I HATE to .. to the shame of my parents and my 3 sisters.

@ Nicky - I only gonna take a 1/2 sec more of you second guessing my Puerto Ricaness. LOL

@ Organized - That was Hilarious Miguelito! LMAO

@ MCM- I told you you could pass for Puerto Rican. LOL

@ Dee - See I LOVE cool-aid!!! Maybe Im Black? LOL

girl do you. you embrace your culture and keep on stepping, lol. good post!

@ Nicky and Golden -yall trying to put me on blast on my own site... that shit just aint right ! LMAO

watermelon and chicken. All the time, everywhere people think this about black folks

i think ur all retarted

hey im not puerto rican but i am half latin i just don't no which one i just wanna say my dad always cook soppon de pollo con arroz and i loved that. and people don't believe if you say you are half latin because you don't look like it like me im half filipin too and i love both of my cultures. and if i may ask which latin country is soppon de pollo con arroz frm because thats where my dads family are frm.

I am not sure if this page is just for young people, but her goes. I am Puerto Rican born, raised in NY, and I love mofongo, morcillas, alcapurrias, flan, arroz con habichuelas, mangoes, quenepas. I don't like sancocho criollo, asopao, guayavas in the fruit, I don't like coco rico, Good Ol Cola, but I like Old colony pina and grape, I like pasteles, and I hate Mavi, but love Pastelon.

I am a school teacher who is trying to do a research on what knowledge students,(adults out of school, too) have about the citizenship status of Puerto Rico and the U.S territories and its possessions. I am currently retire and what I do is substitute here in Panama City Florida. Each time I go to a classroom, I always get ask where I am from. When I reply, some of the questions they ask me questions are: Do I have a passport, green card, Visa or do they need shots to go to PR? I find this to be a fault in education lesson plan content. I can see it coming from people from other countries, but not from students who were born and raised in the US.
Can someone tell me of their experiences, and or if they know of any research done on this topic? thank you

that's the problem you don't become one., your born one., it's in your blood if don't feel it.I guess your right you will always fall short.I was born in U.S.A but I,m 100% puertorican full blood.I,m sorry for your lost

I've recently discovered that the a virus (Infopass.Gamestealer to be specific) has somehow made its way onto my flash drive. It is most likely from a computer I share with the other four hundred or so at my school, but I'm unsure how to remove the virus as Norton (Yes, I realize that it's terrible in terms of virus detection, but it's all I have.) isn't detecting it when I scan the drive. As a result of this virus being on my frequently used flash drive, I've managed to let it drop some malware (Hacktool.Rootkit) onto my personal computer. Norton only ever detects this one when I turn my PC on and never catches it during any of my scans of the computer. Are their any suggestions as to how I can deal with each of them individually, or even both at once? Thank you all for your help!
