Argentina is a large and very developed country that produces and exports many different foods, including beef, grains, and wine. Argentina is particularly famous for its wine and its beef. The asado, an elaborate meal of grilled meat, is one of the most important culinary traditions in this country.
The country's major rivers include the Colorado, Negro, Paraguay, Parana, Salado and Uruguay. Together the Parana and Uruguay Rivers form the Rio de la Plata, which flows past Buenos Aires into the Atlantic Ocean. Argentina's rainforest area, called Mesopotamia, covers the country's northeast. Like its namesake in Asia, Argentina's Mesopotamia lies between two rivers that make the land quite fertile. Hot and humid jungles, swamps and grasslands arise from the rich soil. Lying along this region's northern border are the Iguazu Falls.
