/Sounds like "CHOO" (as in "choose") + "nyoh" (as in "onion")/
Freeze-dried potato made through an ancient Andean process that uses the intense nighttime cold and daytime sun of the Bolivian and Peruvian highlands. The result lasts for years without refrigeration and has been a staple of Andean cooking and home economics since pre-Inca times.
“El chairo lleva chuño remojado desde la noche anterior.”
“The chairo stew uses chuño that has been soaking since the night before.”
“Sin chuño no se completa un buen guiso andino tradicional.”
“A good traditional Andean stew is never complete without chuño.”

Itacate
The food someone packs up for you to take home after a party, family meal, or visit, wrapped in aluminum foil or tupperware. The word comes from Náhuatl "itacatl" (travel provisions), and in Mexico it is almost a ritual: when you leave grandma's house or any family gathering, you never leave empty-handed. The itacate is love in the form of leftovers.
