4. Churros
Churros are served most commonly as breakfast and snacks in Spain.
They are a fried pastry in stick (or twisted) shape.
Some are filled with fruit or chocolate, like the USA version of a jelly-filled doughnut.

5. Tortillas vs. tortillas españolas
Tortillas are more like omelettes in Spain, compared to the fried flatbread we're used to hearing about from Mexico (or other Central and South American countries).
They are eaten hot, cold on sandwiches, or in small pieces as tapas.

6. Tamales
Tamales aren't Spanish in origin. Tamales are Native American in origin.
They are made of steam cooked cornmeal wrapped in corn husks or platanos skins.
Depending on the availability, tamales will have some meat or chili inside.
Sweet or desert-like tamales will have raisins or other fruit added.

7. Paella
Paella is served in Spain during the springtime festival, Las Fallas.
It has rice, meat or fish, saffron, paprika, and a variety of other spices.

8. ¡La paella más grande del mundo!

9. ¡La paella más grande del mundo!
Spanish cooks are claiming a world record for a paella they cooked for 110,000 people in one pan.
Chief cook Antonio Galbis used six tons of rice, 12 tons of chicken and rabbit, five tons of vegetables, and 1,100 litres of olive oil.
He also used a pan with a 21-metre diameter and a team of 80 cooks to prepare the food in Moratalaz near Madrid.
Mr Galbis already broke the paella-making world record in 1992 when he made a dish for 100,000 people, according to reports on the ABC Espana website.
The onlookers didn't finish all the food and the leftovers were donated to homeless charities.

10. Plátanos Plátanos are served in Central and South America.
They are relatives of the banana but are starchier.
Usually they are fried and served as a side dish.

11. Burritos
Burritos are from Mexico made with flour tortillas wrapped around refried beans, rice, meat, fish, cheese, tomatos, chili, or other fillers.
The USA version isn't much different, but is very popular.
