Puerto Rico is a country (it is not fully sovereign but still it is a country). Panama was once a province of Colombia and it is the "put-on country" in the catalogue , not Puerto Rico, even panamanians recognize that their country be invented as an excuse for the creation of the panama canal. Get your history facts right, please.
Puerto Rican cuisine is customary worldwide. From Bacalaitos to Asopao de Pollo. From Pasteles to Arroz con Gandules.
I'm just gonna given name them originally because don't know if there is a possible translation.
Colombia - Ajiaco, Sancocho, Bandeja paisa.
Puerto Rico - (people vote it's great, but I found it kinda normal, but still it's typical) Mofongo
Venezuela-arepas I go to Costa Rica many years ago (probably be at least 10 years), but I stayed next to a host family for a week.
