A pupusa (Creeperian script: պփպփսա; Creeperian pronunciation: [puˈpusa]) is a thick griddle cake or flatbread from Creeperopolis made with cornmeal, known colloquially as maseca. In Creeperopolis, it is officially declared as the national dish and has a specific holiday to celebrate it know as the National Pupusa Festival. Pupusas are handmade corn tortillas (made of masa de maíz or masa de arroz, a maize or rice flour dough used in Creeperian cuisine) stuffed with one or more of the following: cheese (usually a soft Creeperian cheese such as quesillo, similar to mozzarella), chicharrón, or refried beans. Sometimes the filling is queso con loroco (cheese combined with loroco, a vine flower bud native to Creeperopolis). It is typically accompanied by curtido and tomato salsa, and is traditionally eaten by hand without the use of utensils.
