Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

Abobora Refogada is amazing! I love it so much! One of my favorite Brazilian foods. They have it at a lot of self-service restaurants throughout Brazil, especially in Minas Gerais. Bicao in Vicosa makes the best Abobora. It's healthy and packed full of vitamins and minerals, and it's vegetarian too.
