Today, I adventured around the Municipal Market of São Paulo or better known as, Mercadao. I learned about all of these new and exotic fruits and even got to sample a couple! The market is a huge building with aisles upon aisles of little stands with everything from exotic fruits to giant slabs of meat to candies and nuts to every kind of cachaca you can imagine! It is a foodie heaven.
