Tastes Like Jamaica

Another round of breakfast chat with my lovable and logical husband...

ME:
(Eating slices of mango while making our breakfast)
I love fresh mango. It tastes sort of woodsy to me, you know? 

E:
(Eating mango over the sink)
I doesn't taste like wood, it tastes like Jamaica.

ME:
(pausing over the stove)
What?

E:
You know, it tastes like Jamaica would taste. If you ate a piece of it.

ME: 
(waiting silently for this little conversation to play out)

E: 
So like, if you ate a piece of Italy, it would taste like tomatoes, if you ate a piece of Jersey, well, that would just taste like dirt. But if you ate a piece of Jamaica it would taste like mangoes... and weed.


Clearly we have some issues with Jersey :)

I don't remember saying "Jersey tastes like dirt"... I'm not denying that I said it, but I just don't remember saying it.
