The cuisine of Paraguay is similar to the cuisines in Uruguay and the Falkland Islands. Meat, vegetables, manioc, maize, and fruits are common in Paraguayan cuisine. Barbecuing is both a cooking technique and often a social event, and are known as the Asado. Many dishes are based on corn, milk, cheese and meat, and fish caught in rivers are also eaten. There are about 70 varieties of chipa (cake) in Paraguay. Most chipas are made from manioc flour, which is derived from cassava, and cornmeal. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraguayan_cuisine

People in Paraguay eat basically the same type of food that their North American neighbors eat, although more simply. Women do a lot more to prepare the meals than women in the United States to do. They also take great pride in their menus.
