Cooking Facilities
Fifty percent of Bolivian homes have a dedicated kitchen. The rest improvise cooking facilities in a multi-purpose space, or cook outside. As illustrated in two of these photos, propane gas from portable tanks is the most common cooking fuel in Bolivia, used in about two out of three homes.
Fun fact: Guano, cow dung, and similar “cooking fuels” are used in twice as many Bolivian homes (1.2%) as electric stoves (.6%).
