From the beginning of any discussion of the trip, we were told, “You need to start eating more beef to make sure your stomach is fine on the trip.” Well, I’d be lying if I said this didn’t make me a tad bit nervous. Many questions filled my head making me wonder what the food would actually be like. Weeks prior to the trip I did make it a point to increase my beef intake, just in case it actually would benefit me…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Upon arrival, our first meal was HUGE. I think every meal that was served in Uruguay was large enough to feed 3 people, at least. I definitely was not expecting the portion sizes, but I also wasn’t expecting the wide variety of items that were on the menus at restaurants. The first big meal we ate was a different style hamburger with ham and a fried egg on it! I feel like that was the most basic “American” type meal we were served. We had some meals that were similar to steak, we tried intestine even, and even beef tongue!! I’ll admit, there was so much beef. I am definitely glad that I was able to eat beef before I left and get my body prepared for the food. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
