In the center stripe there is an emblem known as the Sun of May (Spanish: Sol de Mayo), a golden sun. The Sun is modeled after the symbol of Inti, the Incan god of the Sun. Popular belief attributes the colors to those of the sky, clouds and the sun; some anthems to the flag like "Aurora" or "Salute to the flag" state so as well.

It has the best of Europe mixed with their Gaucho routes and their irresistible recipes high on proteins are the temptation of any tourist and almost a nightmare for vegetarians. Vegetables and fruits are available but usually more expensive and less popular than meat. Grilled meat like the asado is the staple of their diet. Steak is the specialty, but pastas, pizzas and empanadas are also part of their Italian heritage. Their favorite drink is a traditional infusion prepared with Yerba Mate, a bitter herb that contains stimulants similar to caffeine. This is often combined with baked doughnut-like pastries of German origin called facturas.
