Crazy foods - Brazil Video Transcripts
Video 1 Transcript
The one food that I thought was kind of weird, I don't know, is down there they love making like this corn pudding stuff. Like you'll see dudes on the side of the road and they have their carts and they just, I don't know what they do to make it, they just boil down their corn I guess and mix it with some other stuff and it turns into pudding. Then you can put like leite condensado which is sweetened condensed milk and like cinnamon stuff and mix it all together and they eat it. I guess it's just a treat that you can buy on the side of the road and I tried it once and it was like a little bit horrible but I definitely wouldn't eat it again.

Be aware, you might eat some cow tongue, you might eat some chicken heart, you might eat a lot of pork. As far as crazy foods that go though, just like cow tongue, it's kind of the craziest. Tastes pretty good, honestly. Chicken heart is a little tough. You can kind of have that in any Brazilian steakhouse if you want to try it out before you head out. And they just have so much bread and cheese and chocolate. So is their food crazy? No, but is it crazy delicious? Yes.

Some of the crazier things I ate that a lot of people don't eat in the states are pâté, which is ground up liver. It's very tasty. Everything there is actually really tasty. I liked everything. Another thing that I really liked is bone marrow soup. If you don't know, bone marrow is actually really good for your body and it's quite a delicious soup there. Those are the two craziest things that I ate, but I'm sure there's more. Try all the fruit you can. They've got so much fruit there and it's just, it's sweet, it's succulent, it tastes really good. So you can't go wrong with the food in Brazil.

Feijoada. You can either make it simple or you can make it like the traditional way. It's basically just like beans and then you cook it with pretty much every single part of a pig, like pig ear, pig nose, pig knee, foot, anything you can think of really. If you do it right, it tastes super good. If you do it wrong, it gets really, really salty. But worth a try, 100%.

I wouldn't say I had anything super crazy when I was in Brazil. They had definitely had some really good like acai and stuff like that, but I did have chicken heart. A bunch of people in my group, we all just like ate chicken heart and I was expecting it to be like grosser than it was. Like it definitely wasn't my favorite, like I probably wouldn't eat it again, but it wasn't like super gross, but it was kind of trippy like like taking a bite being like this is literally chicken heart, but yeah.

There's this one popular cultural dish in the northeast that's called makatol, which is basically just cow intestines cut up into little pieces and thrown in a big stew. I personally was actually kind of surprised. I actually really enjoyed it. Tasted really good. They threw like some like seasoning and some rice, of course, and it was actually one of my personal favorites. There's like a different name for it than like in each city, so it just depends like where you go. You'll hear makato or I don't remember. There's some other names I can't remember. It's all basically the same thing, just cow intestines. So that was really, really good actually.
