In Brazil, its rice and beans everyday more other things, the other things change, but not the rice and beans. Its a national food and evebody eats 5 ou 6 times of 7 lunchs in the week. All Latin America eats rice and beans for lunch?

I saw the PR thread with their lunch and started to think if all Latino eat rice and beans at midday. Maybe people from Ecuador, Central America, Bolivia, Argentina, Peru and Mexico dont idk.

In Brasil we can eat your bacalhau with rice and beans at comemorations mostly. Its strange, I think the food is one of the things that portugueses and luso brazilians(all others too) most diverged after these years, our food is so different, only the base in portuguese like is Feijoada and the sweets.

In pakistan specially in my area dinner and last night lunch are mostly the same. We mostly eat the leftovers of the last night dinner. We just heat them and eat it with bread. However we bake fresh bread(wheat) for lunch. For lunch/dinner bread and rice are compulsory dishes, along with one to two other dishes which are altered between beans, lentils, chickpeas, vegetables and meat. The beans, vegetables, chickpeas and lentils dishes also contain meat mostly beef/chicken. Salads are served with dinner/launch and tea is served after it. Sometimes fruits are also served after dinner/lunche. For breakfast bread and tea are compulsory. With it some eat eggs, some eat cream, some eat butter, some eat cheese, some eat meat.

My mom and wife are the best cooks and I am a voracious eater. Haha

I noticed, especially the plates of Bacalhau in "portuguese"restaurants in Brazil were altered to adapt the Brazilian taste, wich means usually rice as a side dish instead of potatoes (or both), and cheese topping (Catupiry etc) on several bacalhau in the hoven recipes, wich is something we never use with bacalhau/fish.

The pasteis/bolinhos de bacalhau are similar. But curiously here there are places who started to make pasteis de bacalhau with cheese inside....I never tried, I simply think that fish and cheese doesn't work.

Me too, in my home we use potatoes and not cheese. But Brazil is enormous, these details change along the country.

In the DR we call it la bandera (the flag).

Puerto Ricans and Dominicans are more into white rice and red pinto beans though. Cubans are more into black beans and yellow rice. Cubans and Dominicans eat more yuca than Puerto Ricans. But Dominicans and Ricans more platains and green bananas. You can see slightly differences. I think the recent Spanish influence in Cuban cuisine is more obvious out of the two.
