Holiday Eating

My holiday travelling through Central America is nearly here. I set the goal and off I go.  With my interests in food, I will be looking at what the local people eat and sampling new cuisine. There is nothing worse than the sight of a McDonalds when I am abroad and seeing how many tourists will go there because they know what to expect. No sense of adventure or experimentation.
Having said all that my family did draw the line at eating Guinea Pig in Peru, but really couldn’t!
I will inevitable be thinner when I come back because of all the trekking but hope to avoid tummy upsets by taking large doses of probiotics before I go and whilst there. That is not a recommendation it just works for me really well. If I can make my digestive system super strong before I go then I am less likely to suffer.
I’ll let you know what curiosities I find so long as I do not spend too much time bouncing off the walls after sampling all the coffee out there. What caffeine does to your body is another story
