With the issuance of the new Delicioso Forever stamps, the U.S. Postal Service celebrates the influence of Central and South American, Mexican and Caribbean foods and flavors on American cuisine. The booklet features stamps depicting tamales, flan, sancocho, empanadas, chile relleno, and ceviche.

Empanadas are flaky, tender pastry pockets filled with everything from fresh corn to spicy beef. They are popular street food in South America and Spain.
