=== Cuisine === {{Main|Cuisine of Antigua and Barbuda}} The islands' cuisine is mostly of European origin (UK and Portugal) with regional ingredients. Fungee (pronounced "foon-jee") and pepperpot are the national dishes. Fungee is a cornmeal-based dish that resembles polenta <ref name="recipeisland">[http://recipeisland.com/blog1/recipe-island/antigua-barbuda-recipes/antigua-barbuda-national-dish-recipe "Antigua & Barbuda National Dish & Recipe."] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101013171821/http://recipeisland.com/blog1/recipe-island/antigua-barbuda-recipes/antigua-barbuda-national-dish-recipe|date=October 13, 2010}} [http://recipeisland.com Recipeisland.com]. Pepperpot is a spinach and okra stew, with and without beef parts or chicken. Accessed July 2011.</ref> Other national foods include saltfish (cod), lobster (from Barbuda), ducana (a sweet dumpling made from sweet potatoes and coconut), and seasoned rice, similar to Palau or arroz con pollo. Additionally, there are confections such as peanut brittle, sugar cake (made from coconut and sugar), fudge, and raspberry (local) and tamarind stew (sauce). The [[Antigua black pineapple]] is prized for its juicy, sweet flesh. It is a well-liked fruit in the area and is included in many regional specialties and sweets. It is said to be the sweetest variety of pineapple.<ref name="Antigua Black Pineapple">{{Cite web |title=Antigua Black Pineapple {{!}} Local Pineapple From Antigua and Barbuda |url=https://www.tasteatlas.com/antigua-black-pineapple |access-date=2023-02-05 |website=tasteatlas.com}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2019-01-02 |title=The Antigua Black Pineapple: An Island Treasure {{!}} Sandals Blog |url=https://www.sandals.com/blog/antigua-black-pineapple/ |access-date=2023-02-05 |website=Hello Paradise β The Official Sandals Resorts Travel & Lifestyle Blog}}</ref> An important part of the Antiguan and Barbudan breakfast is [[Antigua Sunday bread]]. It is sold in many bakeries on both islands, and instead of being made with butter, it is made with lard. There are often decorative twists on the crust of the bread.<ref name=":04">{{Cite web |last=admin |date=2016-06-01 |title=Antigua Sunday Bread |url=http://www.cookingsensemag.com/antigua-sunday-bread/ |access-date=2023-02-05 |website=Cooking Sense Magazine |language=en}}</ref><ref name=":13">{{Cite news |date=2022-09-03 |title=Antigua's traditional bread shops struggle amid food price hikes |url=https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-62595443 |access-date=2023-02-05 |work=BBC News |language=en-GB}}</ref> [[Antiguan raisin buns]], often called "bun and cheese", is another traditional bread, which is sweet and most popular during Easter.
