With the Rio Summer Olympics starting, we couldn’t help but get excited about their cuisine. The Brazilian cuisine is similar to that of other Latin American countries, they have a sweet tooth, they love rice and beans, fresh fruits and vegetables, and have a long list of tasty recipes. So if you’re having viewing parties during these Olympics, we recommend that you do it Brazilian style!
