Little things that are different

In Chile, a tortilla is not a round flat thingy made of corn or wheat, it's an omelette.

Beans are not frijoles, they're porotos.

A frutilla is not a little fruit, it's a strawberry (elsewhere known as a fresa).

Bread with your meal is served with salsa, not butter.

This is goodbye to Chile for a while--tomorrow I head for Arequipa, Peru.
