JAMAICAN STAMP AND GO (CODFISH FRITTERS)
This is from the Betty Crocker International Cookbook, with a few changes we made to suit our taste buds. The introduction explains that these are named for the fact that, before electricity was commonplace, fritters were purchased at take-out stands, wrapped in paper and stamped 'paid'. The locals then took their fritters home or to the beach for eating.
