Does anyone have any stories, legends, folktales, sayings, or songs that are associated with the foods or cuisine in Peru? PLEASE help, this is for a project...Thanks in advance. The one I choose to use gets 10 pts. Oh many! try this webpage www.yanuq.com which is full of peruvian recipes and stories associated with them. One of the first things you need to know is that the Incas had lots of gods and one of the most important one was the Pachamama which was the godess of the earth and nothing ever happened (in the food area) without her consent. Every food you ate had to be blessed by her.
