Ibai Llanos announces Food World Cup featuring Peru vs. Honduras

Spanish streamer Ibai Llanos has announced the 2026 Food World Cup, a virtual culinary competition. In the first round, Peru will represent its gastronomy with ceviche, facing off against Honduras, which will compete with baleadas.

Following the announcement, some Peruvian social media users have expressed skepticism regarding the competition. Critics have questioned the tangible benefits for the country, noting that after winning the previous Breakfast World Cup with 'pan con chicharrón', the primary reward was a golden pan. Some users argued that Peruvian cuisine, specifically ceviche, already holds significant international recognition and does not need to participate in digital voting to prove its status. Others expressed concerns that the event serves the streamer's interests rather than providing national benefits.
