Peruvians love to snack! You can buy small plastic bags filled with many goodies from streets vendors around every corner, a habit many Peruvians can’t break with when wandering around town, waiting for or traveling in the bus or to keep their children quiet. In markets, in bodegas and supermarkets, you find a great variety of snacks. So the choice might be difficult. In rustic restaurants, Peruvian bread rolls or snacks are served as a small welcome starter, in bars to accompany a Pisco Sour or beer. At home many Peruvians love to have different varieties of (hot) chips with spicy salsas. Mostly typical Peruvian noshes are around for centuries and use local ingredients like corn varieties, potatoes, beans, bananas or dried fruits.
