Peruvians are very proud of their food. When I first got here everyone went out of their way to tell me how great the food is (
especially in the North, they say). They would then rattle off three or four Peruvian dishes and tell me how important it was that I try them all. This made me wonder what kinds of foods I'm proud of as an American, and more specifically as an Oregonian. If a Peruvian came to stay with me for three days back home in the States, what would I make sure they tasted before they went home? I've put some serious thought into this, and I think it goes something like this:
Day 1
Breakfast--Homemade waffles with fruit and whipped cream, thick cut bacon and scrambled eggs.
Lunch--Big Town Hero/Gandolpho's. American's have mastered the art of the submarine sandwich.
Dinner--Barbecued hamburgers, with blueberry cobbler for dessert.
Day 2
Breakfast--Denver Omelet
Lunch--Izzy's Pizza
Dinner--Barbecued Steak Marsala
Day 3
Breakfast--
Lunch--
Dinner--
I need some help with day 3. Any suggestions??

Wow, this is making me hungry. I think I'd add a hot dog with the works on it for a lunch. How American is that?
Breakfast: fruit smoothies, scrambled eggs with bacon, whole wheat toast
Lunch: BLT sandwich, chips, carrot sticks, chocolate chip cookies
Dinner Beef Pot Roast with carrots, onions, potatoes; green salad with croutons; Southern biscuits with butter, jam, or honey, and homemade lemon meringue pie
