I've been searching about this for a long time, but the answer is not clear. Is there a difference between May, might and could? And, even further - Is there a difference when they are in a conditional sentence?

When I saw some posts on the internet, I just saw that the three are for possibilities. But, at school (and in some posts, too), I saw that may is different from might (might expresses a low possibility and may expresses a higher one). But , posts in which includes Could , there's no degree saying which shows a high possibility or a low one.

See these exampleexamples:

If I go to Brazil, I may eat Brazilians' food.

If I go to Brazil, I might eat Brazilians'food.

If I go to Brazil , I could eat Brazilians'food.

Is there any difference? Thanks in advance
