Tefé is a small town on the shores of the Amazon river, upstream from Manaus but still in Brazil. Nobody comes here in a traditional dress but many people (most, I'd say) do look like Indians.
One can buy here farinha, or granulated manioc, which Indians have produced since times immemorial. Perhaps not always it was sold in plastic bags, but it has always been added to any meal, like rice in India or China.
Of course one can buy here fish straight from the river. Some can even be consumed on the spot.
