Answers:
Please take it from me- a Cuban!.
Here are some Traditional Cuban dishes:
Arroz Blanco (white rice)
Frijoles Ne*gros (black beans)
Moros y Cristianos (as already posted, this is white rice and black beans mixed together)
Carne con Papas (meat and potatoes, somewhat of a stew, but not too much liquid)
Platanos Fritos (fried plantain bananas)
Yuca con Mojo (boiled yucca with a drizzle of oil and garlic)
Lechon Asado (roasted marinated pork)
Ropa Vieja (as already posted, this is a shredded beef)
There are also ham croquettes, sandwiches, papas rellenas (stuffed potato balls), tamales!.!.!.!.!.!.!.I can go on forever!.
Now, I CAN say, these are traditional Cuban meals- are they eaten in Cuba today!? Not all especially beef- it is very hard to come by in Cuba!. Those who are rich in Cuba, eat well and the majority of the Cubans in Cuba do not!
Your question is why they eat these foods!?!?!?!? Strange questions!.!.!.!.!.it's like asking why the Chinese eat noodles!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
