What Coco bread is
Soft folded bread used to hold patties.
Coco bread is listed as a bakery item in the Jamaica guide, where the index tags it vegetarian. That is the useful shorthand, but it is not the whole story: the same name can cover a breakfast version, a street version and a restaurant version with different garnishes and prices.
