What Is Typical Colombian Food Like?

Let’s taco ’bout Colombian food, shall we? It’s all about beans, rice, and plantains, with a side of arepas, which are basically like tortillas, but cooler. And sure, meat is popular, but who wants to be a party pooper and eat the same thing every night? Luckily, Colombia has more food options than you can shake a banana leaf at, from fresh tropical fruits to international cuisine. And don’t even get me started on the fruit smoothies and juices – they’re the real deal. Plus, Colombia’s coffee game is so strong, they should rename the country “Caffeine República.” And if our adventure, has us staying in a remote indigenous community you might stumble upon some interesting dishes like roasted ants or guinea pig – hey, when in Colombia, right?
