Exactly.
Only here when you ask for a mint tea we use the name of the species, not the genus.
We call it "menta poleo" or even simly "poleo".
I have no idea why we do it like that.
In other instances (cooking for example) you just say "mint" though.
If you say "poleo" everybody understands you want a tea.

Yesterday I tried Jerk jackfruit with rice and cabbage from a new Caribbean place that just opened. It was ok - very spicy and the jackfruit wasn't done very well so that was a shame.

Never eaten it either. But I think that's the greatest part of going to an exotic restaurant: trying out things you would never eat otherwise!

It's very difficult to get right I find; you need to really cook it and basically make it so it no longer tastes of fruit lol
It's most commonly used as a pulled pork replacement because it has that similar texture.
Today I didn't really eat much during the day but had fajitas for dinner and they were yum!

After a week of eating out (because of family visiting) I really just need a lot of vegetables lmao

I've had a decent week to myself since my sister/nephew is house sitting.
That being said, I've been slightly lazy with meals since it's finally just me lol.
Yesterday:
Breakfast: a granola bar
Lunch: hayashi beef/beef stew over rice with cabbage (my mom bought a cabbage at a farm stand and gave me half and it's a ton so I've been eating cabbage all week)
Supper: I made naan pizzas since the chicken I was going to use for stir fry was still frozen =/

Today I had some seafood salad on chive and garlic crackers with a side of baby carrots.
I might eat some more of it though since I've gotten hungry again!!
