8 Weird Latin Foods

A new show called Around the World in 80 Plates is premiering tonight at 10 pm (EST) on Bravo, and we’re excited to see what dishes will represent the different countries of Latin America. After all, our food is so diverse that it would be hard to narrow the cuisine to just one plate. But there are some foods even we’d be reluctant to nibble. Would you dare try these exotic eats?

Chips and popcorn are a great salty snack, but if you live in the Mexican state of Oaxaca, you might choose to munch on grasshoppers instead. Chapulines are a regional treat generally cooked in garlic, lime juice, and salt. They’re delicious (if you can get past insect legs getting stuck between your teeth!).
