  4. To start with: Potatoes, Lima Beans and Quinine (the medicine used to treat malaria).

    Also, although many don't know it, many English words came from the Peruvian Andes.

    For example, did you know that the word "jerky" as in "beef jerky" comes from Quechua? Jerky as a mispronunciation of the Quechua word "charky" which, in Quechua, means "dried meat". The word "poncho" is also Quechua an it describes a woolen clothing accessory the Incas wore very similar to the current "rain ponchos" you see today, except without the hood.

    Also the words condor, puma, guano, llama.

  5. There are more than 3 things.

    Me!

  6. Actually, the Inca are a successor culture that came from Tiwanaku, which is in Bolivia.

  7. most important and popular all around the world:

    POTATOS

    PEANUTS

    ALPACA

    LLAMA

    PISCO

  8. I think they all mention the most important... don't forget the cotton! Peru has the best cotton in the world; and potatoes... Peru has a large variety, more that 1000 types =)

  9. Pisco Sour

    Ceviche

    Potatoes

    Lucuma (a fruit)

    Chirimoya (a fruit)

    Coca leaves (not the drug, the leaves)

    Maca and Uña de gato (medicinal leaves and roots)

  10. Well, there cannot be only three things originated from Peru. Preu has a variety of things.  First, Ceviche is exiquisite. when you finish eating your Ceviche you have to drink la leche de tigre( the juice of the ceviche is known as Tiger's milk.).  there are several things: Maca, Arroz con Leche( Rice with milk) -- Exquisite!! ,  Mazamorra, Turrones ( You must taste them.)  Rachi, Anticuchos, Pisco Sour, Carapulcra, Papa a la huancaina  and of course Cristal's beer. If I still listing all the things, I will never end.
