CULTURAL INSIGHT An Essential Part of Peruvian Culture SPANISHPOD101.COM ADVANCED AUDIO BLOG S3 #1 - PERUVIAN CUISINE: LA COMIDA PERUANA 5 In Peru, we have lots of delicious food, and we are proud of it. One example of this appears in a very well-known commercial that promotes Peru, which starts by saying, "If you are Peruvian, you have the right to eat well."

For example, we use the word causa, which is a typical Peruvian plate, to also refer to "a friend." Just like this, there are more names of plates that we use in our daily conversation, showing the influence that food has in our culture.
