Google Doodle Today: One of the most staple breakfast snacks in Brazil, Pão de Queijo, was featured as a Google Doodle on May 15, 2024. The Brazilian cheese bun is a popular snack and can be found in every shop. Apart from its cheesy taste, the Brazilian snack holds immense cultural and historical significance. Its origin can be traced to the 17th century, when local communities used to collect the by-products of cassava plants while processing them. The grainy tapioca flour produced during the processing of cassava plants was later turned into a dough, rolled into small balls, and baked.
