Answer 3

Any influence to the early "settlers" would have been very  welcome to the bread and water served in the prison ships...I'm sure...i doubt if you'll find a bigger influence from Spain than the many other sea-going and colonial countries...Maybe I'm wrong but as an American cook I tune into their cooking channels often.
