It doesn't sound appetizing, but it's a grilled corn tortilla filled with cheese, meat, and/ or beans. Mmmm . . .

How's it different than a taco, then? I'm honestly asking!

I'm with Billy Connelly - Mexican food is actually all the same food, just folded differently.

irish41. Tacos have ingredients added to the shell or tortilla (crunchy or soft) separately, all prepared separately. Apparently papusas are made all one and cooked as one. Like a small fat stuffed paratha. Or a small flat Cornish pastie. Or empanada.

I love your user name, Riddler, but detest your happy little Vegemites. Our daughter did a semester of college in Australia and brought home a jar. It is definitely not something we Americans usually eat, but to each his own.

In England we had Marmite. Came to New Zealand and prefer the less powerful vegemite now. Perhaps it is an acquired taste ?

In a past life I made Biltong in South Africa, it is strips of beef, dipped in vinegar (sometimes herby) , salt rubbed and air dried. It is very tasty. I also made Ostrich Biltong which is made from the leg meat and is really good and much prized.

Really should accept Salvador for El Salvador. Since the official name of the country is the Republic of El Savador. In other quizes, Gambia is acceptable, even though its called The Gambia short for the Republic of Gambia.

As I mentioned above,......... I'm sorry to spoil some incorrect ideas, but Haggis was eaten in Lancashire before being known in Scotland.

Pupusa should also include Honduras. There is great debate amongst Hondurans and Salvadorans about who came up with Pupusas.

To Roger Silveira: I doubt that the culinary tastes of a country change merely because of a political split. Therefore a food that originates in Korea would originate in both North and South Korea. Therefore, in this instance, "Korea" is the correct answer.

It's my understanding that gyros first came from a Greek who lived in Chicago.

That seems unlikely since it's basically the same as shawarma and doner kebab- food commonly enjoyed all over the former Ottoman Empire and nearby countries. Maybe the guy in Chicago put a different spin on it or something. But the best gyros I've had were in Nicosia, on the Greek side of Cyprus.
