LGR Covers the Atari Portfolio

Not wanting to confuse culture with computational wordplay, but my first thought was in the direction of “a banana bag again (or a camel)”

I did not actually encounter “banana bags”. I did have rice and beans from a Rasta living in a hut who served it in a bowl made from half of a cleaned out inner coconut husk with a spoon made from a wedge from a half of a coconut husk, but that was it as far as “locally grown” utensils / containers.

The “rum shops” that I passed through when surveying out in the smaller rural villages (which also sell cold soft drinks, cheese, dry rice, cigarettes, turkey backs from big plastic drums, etc.) used plastic bags for wet items and butcher paper folded over for dry items.
