Examples

“Some snack bars incremented this morning sandwich and created the “x-caboquinho” – besides the French bread roll, the margarine and the tucumã, they also add cheese and fried banana.”

“The fruit [tucumã] is also wedged into a roll with cheese and banana in the x-caboquinho toasted sandwich (£2.50).”

“The combination of a buttery tapioca crepe, salty cheese, sweet banana, and the squash-like crunch of slightly bitter tucumã ticks all the boxes for me and is equally as good on a sandwich, or the famous X-Caboquinho.”

“TUCUMÃ AND CHEESE SANDWICH (X-CABOQUINHO)”

“Depois das gravações do amanhecer, todos experimentaram o “x-caboquinho”, um sanduíche típico da culinária do Amazonas que consiste em um pão francês recheado com pedaços de tucumã, banana-pacova madura e fria, queijo coalho e manteiga.”

“In the State of Amazonas, the tucumã is the main ingredient of a typical sandwich (x-caboquinho), made with bread or tapioca (manioc flour), cheese, and fried banana.”

“In the heart of Brazil's vast Amazonas state, […] tucumã palms provide an orange fruit that's only in season from February to August. During this time, it's often eaten for breakfast with cassava flour and is a key ingredient in the state's signature x-caboquinho sandwich, where slices are layered with salty coalho cheese and sweet chunks of fried plantains.”
