Then again, little had changed since the last dreadful chapter in Emilio's notably indiscreet life. Onions and figs once used as projectiles came back to Jamaica in large quantities; most custom officials turned a cartwheel when order came about, unaware that chaos theory had rendered them pretty obsolescent and useless. Nonetheless, resolute, proactive reactions continued to affect most Jamaican grocers, despite looming vegetarian lackluster cooking classes.

The last sentence is dangling grammatically and thus should not yet have a dot at the end
Knurrhähne sind eßbar aber empfehlen würde ich das nicht unbedingt.

I respectfully disagree, Swato. Perhaps "underpass" is not seen as a noun where you live, as it is here? (By the way, weren't you missing a period at the end of your sentence?)

The problem is that the main clause has either no predicate or no object. If 'found' is the verb, there is nothing that is found, The part including 'tucked' (which could be another candidate) is clearly in a subclause not the main.

Rastafarian chefs (main subject)
parading their parsnip pavlovas to their inebriated guests at the Kaya Karnival with no introductions (subclause relating to the chefs)
found  tucked underneath their dreadlocks or anywhere near the western underpass (sub-subclause relating to 'introductions')
Here should be the verb serving as predicate and likely an object
. (period)

Still this is a subclause with the finite verb missing in the ain clause.

Actually, all that is missing is a comma after "found", but the sentence is entirely understandable as is.
