Week 6: What should we eat in Iquitos?

We will be passing through Iquitos at the end of our adventure. We will have the opportunity to revisit the famous Belen Market, where Dave ate the palm weevil last year. The market is filled with all sorts of exotic foods such as smoked paiche and arawana, tapir, monkey, insect larvae, tropical fruits, grasshoppers, palm nuts, and the list goes on! Because many of you want to learn more about the different foods that people eat in the rainforest, we thought we'd check out the market one last time before leaving Peru. We want you to vote on what foods we should try at the market. We will post a final video of us eating the foods next week. Stay tuned!

Sorry

If you eat animals that are endangered (like the paiche) you will be supporting the hunting of them.

We had a difficult time deciding. At first, some students said the meat, but if it is from endangered animals, they say "No way!". Then there was a split between larvae and fish. Eat as much as you can!

I love fruits and I would really like to try some but since I'm not there I would like to see some.

I think they should eat what ever they have in the rain forest and friuts .

You might never get to try these types of ffruits again so you should eat the exotic fruits.
