2. The Food
10 culture shocks when visiting peru foodI like to eat and I like Peruvian food, but I just cannot finish a Peruvian serving. I cannot count the times that I have asked “Just a little bit, please” and have ended up forcing myself to finish my plate because I didn’t want to insult the host. I need to add here as well that I’m still constantly impressed that there’s always enough food, even if you bring 3 extra people for dinner. Peruvian moms (because let’s face it, it’s still mostly women who cook for their families here) always seem to cook enough for an extra 5 eaters.
