The names of these dishes will make you laugh and make your mouth water.

When traveling through Brazil, we are faced with a huge variety of foods and typical dishes that we cannot say, for sure, if our cuisine has limits. The funniest thing is to discover that the same dish that is eaten in the northeast, for example, also exists in the southeast, but with different names and beyond fun. Kid’s foot, wooden ear, mother-in-law’s eye… hominy or polenta? Cassava, maniva, cassava or cassava? Well, it will depend on which region you live, but for sure the flavor will be the same.

Chances are you’ve already eaten one of these items below and didn’t know what they called it elsewhere. Check them out and learn how to prepare them:
