Family is very important in Brazilian culture. Brazilian culture is similar to that of Portugal due to the hundreds of years of Portuguese colonization.

Catholicism is Brazil's largest religion; 73% are Catholic. Carnival is a festival that is held before Lent. Many Catholics don't eat meat and poultry during Lent. The Protestant religion is growing in popularity.

Brazil has many fresh fruits:pineapples,guava,and papaya are a few examples. Pao de queijo(cheenies) are my favorite Brazilian food they are chewy cheese flavored rolls.

Brazil is a really large country in South America. I would like to visit Brazil to see the rain forests and carnival.
