I don't know how you Americans can stand the Latino influence on your food
and language. Their food would have been considered pet food in the 1960s,
that is, until things like ground beef became part of "gourmet meals" and
chicken wings became something fed to people and not cast off garbage from
the butcher's ground up for dog food.

I'm tempted to try something similar using Taco Bell bean burritos.

A lot of us even go to Mexican restaurants! And many times, the owners
have been in this country for 30 or 40 years.

Doesn't stop it from being grotesque. I can understand allowing a Chinese
or Indian influence, but Mexican food was born of poverty. People ate it
because they had no choice.

I happen to like it. The fact that it's fairly cheap to make or buy in a
restaurant isn't so bad either.

This is just another racist post meant to stir p trouble and offend people.
Almost all cuisines come from what people were forced to eat by their
geography

Giusi,

Agreed. Before the internet put world cultures on display for all to see,
what you grew up eating was "as good as gold." Books (cookbooks for rfc's
sake) were the early avenue of merging cultural information across vast
distances.

No culture's populations are immune from going hungry. The 1930's "Dust
Bowl" of the great plains of the US and Canada being a prime example.

Best,

Andy

Yet another gown up picky eater posting something stupid in rfc.

Allow? Allow? What does "allow" have to do with anything? Mexico is
our next door neighbor and we have a huge population of Mexican
descent in the USA. I've noticed that Chinese people mainly eat
Chinese food and Indian people mainly eat Indian food - and yet here
you are objecting to Mexican food (in public no less). The rest of us
won't stop enjoying it just because you don't. Run off and stuff
yourself with cheap hotdogs and Bud light.

You do not know anything other than ignorance and bigotry. Almost all great
food is born of poverty and if it was not for the Mexicans you would not have
chocolate, potatoes, tomatoes, chile peppers, sweet corn or anetto.

My first restaurant was in Mexico and I used to serve dishes from poverty
around the world, like baklava, coconut chicken soup, Irish stew, lasagna,
pigs trotters, black sausage, Balmain bugs, pigeon breast, calves liver, baked
brie, feta etc.

Superb Mexican food can be quite expensive, but the regular person's diet has
some wonderful inventions like the corn tortilla, fresh off the griddle, and
bbq pork cheeks with cilantro and a tiny drop of honey, served with the best
avocados I have ever had, sliced and drizzled with lime juice, with maybe some
potatoes mashed with manchego cheese.

I think the Aztecs would argue that point.

Aztecs again, but Aztecs from Mexico City. I'll give you that one on a

Eh. Grows all over, north and south of Mexico.

Huh? Not even close on that one. That's Native American, from way
north of Mexico.

Okay, you've stumped me there. I don't even know what that is?

And Rich's argument is silly anyway. Nothing Sandra Lee does could
remotely be called "mexican cuisine"

You'll note I gave you one Aztec ingredient from Mexico, but not the
other from farther south.

Like making guacamole in a rock?
(There was an ep of RHoA in which one of the hosuewives was at a fancy Mexican
restaurant and whined about them making the guac at the table "in a rock")
