What are the typical and most delicious foods from these countries?

Question

Costa Rica

Colombia

Venezuela

Panama

Puerto Rico (I know this is not a country :)

Answer 1

Puerto Rico is a country (it is not fully sovereign but still it is a country). Panama was once a province of Colombia and it is the "fake country" in the list , not Puerto Rico, even panamanians recognize that their country was invented as an excuse for the creation of the panama canal. Get your history facts right, please.

Puerto Rican cuisine is recognized worldwide. From Bacalaitos to Asopao de Pollo. From Pasteles to Arroz con Gandules.

Answer 4

I went to Costa Rica many years ago (probably been at least 10 years), but I stayed with a host family for a week. I remember eating alot of foods that would be the same as eating here in the US, but I do remember my host family served us alot of fruits, like bananas, papayas, passion fruit, grapes, mangos.  I remember seeing a McDonald's in San Jose. Could smell the coffee when we left the airport.....
