Food Festivals Around The World!
I don't know about you, but I love food. It doesn't matter what kind of food or from what culture - I'll try just about anything and I'll note it on my list as a "good" food for future reference. For this exact reason, many people travel the country and the world looking for food festivals. These are just like art, music or wine festivals in that you can travel to almost any place across the world and find a popular one, but they are also one of the favorite ones because they service food and damn good food at that. It could be Empanadas in Portugal, truffles in Italy or cheese in Wisconsin, you are sure to be in food heaven either way.
Some of the best ones I have been to in the world are as follows! The Gilroy Garlic Festival includes some gourmet and VERY yummy items such as garlic cheese fries, garlic calamari and of course garlic bread! Looking for something with a little more kick? Why not try the Gourmet Chili Pepper and Salsa Festival in Texas! You can find a varying degree of peppers at this festival from sweet and hot and spicy and sour - if hot is what you like, then this is going to be a great place for you! Don't forget to check out the nut and salsa shacks as well as the jam stands.
Ever have jalapeno mango jam before? No? Well now you can and it's outrageous! Looking for something International? Greece is definitely the way to go. Not only is it a beautiful country, but they also have some really good food as well! Check out Greece during Easter and you are bound to find foodie lovers just like you trying out items such as spanakópitta, tsouréki and one of my favorite things lamb souvláki which is skewered lamb or beef. Yum!
