Before I get into the food finds in Lima, let me tell you of a brief warning I received soon after arriving. "Plan on getting a little sick from the food in Lima, everyone does." And with that, Gabriel, the faculty leader for our DRTC project shared plain and simple rules that visitors to Peru need to follow in order to minimize (notice I wrote minimize) one's chances of getting ill. In short, he advised us not to drink the tap water (obvious), not to have too much of any one thing (chances of any one kind of bacteria getting one sick is lessened) and not to eat ceviche after 4 pm! Rather sensible but telling advice I thought as I listened on as he told me of the proven healing powers of Fruitti Flex 50, a local electrolyte drink sold at most pharmacies.
So here's a picture Frutti Flex for our blog! Lord knows there was dozens of bottles available in my room for all who came a calling!! Get the picture?
