If you've never had a tamarind ball, you're missing out.

It's this sticky, sweet-sour candy made from tamarind pulp rolled in sugar. Every Jamaican kid grew up on them. But here's the thing — most people outside the Caribbean have never even heard of it.

Same goes for bulla cake (dense, spiced, perfect with cheese), gizzada (coconut tart with a flaky crust), and proper plantain chips — not the bland ones from the health food aisle.

I started Yard Snacks because I wanted people to taste what we actually eat in Jamaica. Not the resort version. The real thing.

First box is $25, ships to your door. Come taste what you've been missing.
