weird things i eat in chile: the jam edition

Eating Chilean food hasn't been as big of an adjustment as I thought it would be. They eat a lot of familiar things here (por ejemplo, last night I had some DELICIOUS fettucine alfredo), but they have a couple of strange habits that I am slowly picking up.

One of the weird things I do in Chile is eat jam on everything. My host mother makes fresh jam out of different Chilean fruits (apparently there are several berries that are distinct to Chile -- most of them resemble blackberries, but they're a lot sweeter) and serves it at every meal. We put jam on top of cereal, bread, crackers, and even cheese. We go through about a bowl of jam every day, and it's always magically refilled the next morning. I'm already preparing a list of foods that I will be completely addicted to by the time I get back to the US, and homemade jam is at the top...
