If you’re like me, you treat your body like a temple. But travel is about stepping out of your comfort zone and experiencing other cultures. And that includes enjoying the snack foods of the places that you visit. Sure, we all fancy ourselves foodies of the highest order, but everyone needs low brow snacks in their lives. There are few better ways to experience the local palate than to consume their junk food.
The French are known for haute cuisine, but they also enjoy pairing their wines with chorizo-flavored potato chips (I recommend a single-serving box). And who hasn’t eaten a Cheeto and thought, “I sure wish this also tasted like bacon?” Well, the Australians remedied that predicament.
So the next time you find yourself in a foreign land, eschew eating at a fancy restaurant or having your host family cook for you. Instead, find the local corner store and ask for their finest fried pork product. You’ll be glad you did.
