Atypical Bolivian food is Pique macho (pronounced pee-kay-maacho), a hug proportion of bite-sized pieces of sausage, beef, onions, locoto (chili), boiled egg, mustard, mayonnaise, ketchup, and French fries. Urban legend has it that a person who finishes a whole plate is "macho." For those who simply cannot finish a whole plate, pique is a smaller portion of pique macho.
Another typical food is Silpancho, which consists of layers of rice, boiled potatoes, schnitzel-style meat, tomato, onion, and parsley topped with one or two fried eggs.
A Native American dish from the Pre-Hispanic times, the Humita is made of flour and corn slowly fried in oli. This is the Bolivian equivalent of Mexico and Central America's tamales.
A kind of fast food, Salchipapas is made of thinly-sliced, fried beef hotdogs or sausage and French fries, served on a plate or a paper cone with different sauces like chili, llajwa (Bolivian marigold) and ketchup.
