The recent displacement of Venezuelans to Boa Vista-RR has been observed from different perspectives. One aspect still unexplored is food. Most of these migrants seek to carry out some productive activity that generates income to buy food and send it to relatives in Venezuela. They are subjected to precarious working and life conditions. The social relations involved in the circulation of food invite us to reflect on human mobility. Giving food, receiving and eating together configure asymmetrical and symmetrical relationships, with Brazilians or between Venezuelans. The article focuses on the agency of Venezuelans in these situations. They may be providers of distant homes, commensals who come as equals, and pets or prey of Brazilian capitalism.
