I keep seeing that term bandied about in here and people keep accusing me of
eating it. But in looking up the term, there does not seem to be any one
answer. Chevy's Fresh Mex claims to be Tex Mex. We had one here years ago.
It didn't last very long. We tried it a few times and didn't like the food.
There was also one in Alameda. My husband did like it but Angela and I did
not. Have also read that Taco Bell is Tex Mex. Only thing they have that I
like are the bean burritos but I can't eat them due to all of the weird
added ingredients. Those are easy enough to make at home.

Some sources say that Tex Mex is Americanized dishes smothered in cheese.

My uncle told me that sour cream is never used in Mexico. I think he was
wrong about that as they have Crema which is very similar.

Janet Wilder used to say that if you weren't eating it if you weren't in
Texas.

Many of the Mexican restaurants here have sort of a fusion of foods from
both Mexico and South America. And certainly Americanized dishes such as
various salads.

So... What is your interpretation of Tex Mex?
