The breakfast food is the loving bomb and where it's at:

Chilaquiles, chorizo con huevos, and machaca con huevos. Or eat soyrizo con huevos if you want the taste of chorizo with out the lard-soaked hog anuses.

The only thing I'll miss after moving out of my Mexican neighborhood is a good torta. It's basically a sandwich with meat of your choice, avocado, refried beans, cheese, pickled jalepenos, and lettuce/tomato.

Here we are on page 3 and I'm ashamed at the lack of love for cabeza tacos and also tripa tacos. There's a joint down the street that serves cabeza tacos with some kinda roasted salsa that's amazing. For tripa, there's another joint a few miles away that serves it with some delicious verde sauce that I recently learned also contains more than the recommended daily allotment of lead.

I never had it until I was like 27 and I asked my friend why the gently caress there was soap in my tortillo soup. He said what are you talking about? I handed him one of the green things and said "I think they got some bay leaves they use in soap or something" and he tasted it and said you dumb poo poo thats cilantro. I said what is this? I did a little research and still tastes like poo poo, pretty much ruins everything I eat. I don't care if I had weird genertics and think its gross, it would still be gross if I didnt. Who would eat this poo poo? It is like eating battery acid on a leaf. Ugh. Let me ruin all my flavors with bitter garbage.

carne asada is literally tampico poured onto meat because mexicans can't afford orange juice lol

This is my loving jam.


Ok so here are few dishes which may be harder to find, but they are perfect for winter time. If you're a good cook you might want to try your hand at them.


Chiles en nogada - Perhaps the ultimate Mexican dish. It is the same concept as chiles rellenos but they are not fried and covered in a creamy sauce. Some restaurants only offer them during independence day or during fall/winter.


Caldo Tlalpeņo - You might know this as tortilla soup, you also might be a luckless dummy. Caldo Tlalpeņo is the jiggity rear end jam. Must contain: Chicken, BIG pieces of Avocado, chunks of white cheese, fried tortilla, and a big ol' chipotle.


Tamal Vercruzano - This could get me killed in the North, but I actually prefer tamales verecruzanos over the typical corn tamal that we eat in Northern Mexico/USA. This one's wrapped in a banana leaf and might contain chunks of chicken or pork.


Pozole - The Aztecs may have originally made this as a cannibalistic ritual dish. Unfortunately it is now made with boring old Pork and/or Chicken. It is loving delicious, especially when spicy. My mom's is the best :colbert:

I live in Mexico in a loving city that doesn't have tacos de cabeza and tripa and I hate them for that. People are instead crazy over pastor and gorditas. :( I miss the greasy tripa in a greasy tortilla...

Mexican food is the best food. I heard Mexico is one of the fatter countries in the world despite the poverty. Pretty obvious why if what they eat is a bunch of corn and fatty meats soaked in delicious sauces. Prob one of the few upsides to living in the US compared to other 1st world countries is proximity to the worlds number 1 comfort food culture.

Truly Mexico and the Americas have contributed to the world's food supply immensely. Chocolate, chili, corn, tomatoes, avocados... these are some of the greatest foods in existence.

Europe was eating Turnips before they got the good poo poo from there lmao

Yeah, at my mother's city you'll find taquerias selling you all the parts of the cow and pig. Over here people tend to have lovely food tastes.

My sister works for the department of state alongside a foreign exchange programs where kids from eastern europe come to the united states for like a year and stay with a host family. A lot of the time they ask what is the best american food, and its hard to pinpoint because culturally our gastronomy is so diverse, but when it comes down to it, i point them in the direction of taco bell for the ultimate summation of american food. They go back to their home country and when it comes time for their report or whatever when they say what they liked best and worst about living in this country, an overwhelming majority mention that "mexican" food was the best thing.

Have a pot of this on the stove. Right now I'm chowing down on a pot of menudo from a place in town where if you can't speak a little Spanish you can't order. Have a nice bottle of Mexican coke to follow it and a side of honest to god fried pork skins, the real stuff with the layer of fat fried in not that poo poo you get in a bag

I don't know why that is but a lot of hole in the wall places can be great. Like the best chicken philly I had was from a gas station guy named Ali in the middle of the ghetto, or tacos from a truck in the middle of Austin on some random street and another place that had the windows with iron bars...or fried chicken at Hot Sauce Williams...or kebabalicious being a shack in Austin.

The best sandwich I ever had with incredibly fresh and delicious simple ingredients was at Bellatrinos, a food truck in the Dallas Fort Worth area. Good pizza too. I wish I could have experienced more but it is tough to nail down where that truck would have been.

Also great in Fort Worth is Los Molcajetes in a strip mall. They light the queso on fire and mix with meat it at your table while one fire until it goes out. Their chimichanga was basically a larger chipotle burrito filled completely with flavorful beef or chicken.
