        The breadfruit has its "arikoo", the seed that we call arikoo. The arikoo has a good taste. When the breadfruits get ripe high up on the tree, they fall down, and hitting on the ground they open. Then we go to get the seeds lying at the base of the breadfruit tree. When we come home, we light a fire, put charcoals on it, and then we scatter the seeds on the burning charcoals.
