      I'd love to learn more about some South American cuisine, but I don't know enough about it to pick a specific country.

        Peru!

        In Peru we have...

        • 4000 varieties of potatoes
        • quinoa
        • choclo, a large kernel variety of field corn that is often eaten toasted and salted
        • ceviche everywhere
        • Chifa, or Peruvian-Chinese cuisine, such as Lomo Saltado
        • Cuy (sorry vegetarians)
        • a variety of alcoholic drinks, such as chicha and pisco sour (which can be turned into a coca sour by using the coca leaf)
        • and Inca Kola, such a popular soft drink that it beat out Coke for the Peruvian market
