I think "país" threw me off! And of course eating cultures vary wildly around the world...Most of the breakfasts I ate at home with the family I stayed with in Bogotá were meat-filled tamales, chicken empanadas and chorizo, hot chocolate and cheese...all of which I'd eat with gusto! Nice to take a break from my old cereal routine, for sure. ;) Thanks, Kim–fixed my accents. I think “país” threw me off!

In this case, this case, it is eaten during the day (usually lunch, while there is also a similar dish for breakfast); for dinner, it is a really light one. Breakfast like a king, lunch as a price, dinner as a pauper... Being nitpicky here, since you were using diacritics: the word “paisa” does not have it. :)
