Guyana @ 50 - Pow, Pao, Pau

Pow(s) were always a hit and a sold-out favourite at the many Church cake/bake sales, especially the ones held by Sacred Heart Church. On Saturday mornings, in the foyer of the then Royal Bank of Canada on Water Street, there would be bake sales to raise funds for one cause or another - to fix the Church's roof, send the altar boys to camp or something. The Pows would be delivered and they never made it to the sale table because all the ladies selling bought the Pows for their family. :)
