Sweet Sweet Argentina
Life is sweet, especially when you’re in Argentina. It isn’t just the abundance of steak, it’s the fact that every other facet of Argentinean cuisine (that I’ve come across) has something sweet about it. Whether it’s buttery, sugar-topped croissants in the morning, or a snack of churros and dulce de leche, there is nothing too sweet for Argentina.
In my week long stay, I came across a whole slew of food items that I don’t ordinarily assume would be sweet. For example, there was sweetened ketchup, coffee that tasted naturally sweet, and even sweet spreadable cheese! My friend even thought the fries were sweet, but I think we were just going overboard.
