Puerto Rican Food
The cuisine of Puerto Rico is greatly influenced by the Spanish cuisine, and to some extent by Africa, South America and the native inhabitants of the island - the Taino Indians. The locals use a lot of their indigenous food ingredients and seasonings and call their cuisine "cocina criolla". It is recognized for its distinctive flavors and the aromatic variety of their herbs and spices.
