We go on a journey through different parts of Chile in this video with Anthony Bourdain. He visited many different areas throughout Chile and experienced many different types of drinks and foods throughout. It was interesting to see such a huge variety of food in Chile and I have spotted that a lot of it is meat, especially pork. Something else of interest was the wine when they were speaking of how cheap it can be, ten dollars, but still be excellent quality wine. Another big part of Chilean food that is seen in this video was a lot of seafood.
I am not much of a wine drinker but would be interested to try it while I am out there, although in the video the terremoto drink, wine mixed with pineapple ice-cream, sounded and looked good. As far as food goes I can be picky about food but I tend to test myself and force myself to go out of my comfort zone to try new things. I am always willing to try things once, I do not like avocados and or seafood which I am aware are both very popular in Chile. Although I do not like both they may be prepared in different ways then I have tried so I am willing to try them in Chile and who knows maybe I'll end up having a different feeling towards them. The only thing that may really test my willingness to try and go outside my comfort zone is what we would consider weird or gross meats mentioned in the video, such as cow hoofs and pig intestines. If there was something I truly feel I won't try or do not like I would kindly tell my host family "no thank you". But as said before I am willing to try and open to new things, I am excited to try new foods and can't wait to find my new favorite dish!

I've never had avocados so I don't know if I like it or not, but either way, I'd be happy to help you find alternatives in Chile so you don't starve on the trip.
