Callaloo is a leafy West Indian staple green vegetable, somewhat like spinach or kale.

In Trinidad, this is also the name of the soup made from said vegetable. In Jamaica, "callaloo" refers to a combination of fried callaloo and salted fish.

As of about a year ago   (please don't ask me to do further research, why can't you just be satisfied with what I give you?), the world's oldest living person was a Dominican woman named Elizabeth 'Pampo' Israel, who was turning 125. She told reporters that callaloo and crab were responsible for her strength and endurance.

Calalloo is also the name of a journal giving "local and global music perspectives on hiphop."
