Ibai Llanos launches global food competition featuring national dishes
The 'Mundial de Comidas 2026', a global food competition organized by Spanish content creator Ibai Llanos, has entered the round of 16. The tournament uses a direct elimination format where participants vote via the creator's social media platforms, including Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube.
In the current matchups, Peruvian ceviche and Inka Kola are competing against Honduran baleadas and Salvavida beer. Meanwhile, Guatemalan pepián is facing off against Mexican tacos. The competition follows the success of the 2025 Breakfast World Cup, which previously recognized Peru for its breakfast offerings. The tournament aims to identify the world's most iconic main dishes through public engagement.
