What’s the food like in Belize?
This is a very common question, and everyone you ask will give you a different answer depending on what kind of food they like and where they’ve been in Belize. If you want fast food or steakhouses, forget about it. Fast food in this country is chicken, rice, and beans, and guaranteed you’re never too far from a pot of it – a good thing if you like chicken, rice, and beans. It’s also easy to get barbequed chicken in almost any town, served with rice & beans or a tortilla. If you’re a big meat eater, you may not be so happy because Belizeans don’t seem to be big meat eaters and while it is possible to get good meat, not a lot of restaurants serve it. If you like lots of fresh fruits and vegetables served lots of different ways, you’ve come to the right place. Something good is always in season.
