chiles rellenos are one of the most delicious foods out there and you are not a true man if you cant handle a particularly spicy one (their spicyness tends to be pretty random which is part of the fun)

aight goons here is a question very dear to my heart: salsa roja or salsa verde? im a salsa verde man myself

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.

Actually it's because they drink so many loving soft drinks. Roughly half a litre a day.

You cannot swing a dead gato here (Denver) without finding a mexi truck, and the tacos are 4 for $6, no tax, so good.


Don't miss the little salsa bar down tucked in front of the truck. If you're not sure which one to get, let that construction worker go first and then get whatever he did.

I've always wondered about poo poo like this. Like, i have a friend who is a very world-traveller-type, and he said that one time he got chips with thousand island dressing presented as 'nachos'.

always thought that 'authentic' mexican food or whatever is one mail-order-spice-company away. Most of the legit food cultures are built around poo poo cuts of meat, which are ubiquitous. Find some flank steaks or whatever, get your real deal spices, have some Mexican. You won't have the same flavor from the hubcap they cooked it in or the seasoning from the refinery down the road, but you can at least get the gist of it

Sure I could make it myself, but yu can't get mexican food in the uk in the same way that you can get indian and chinese food - there's an indian takeaway joint less than 3 minutes from my front door, and another 20+ within delivery distance. There's not a single mexican food chain in the UK that I know of, and I've never seen an independent mexican food place. I'd guess London has a couple, but never seen one.
Rumours and fables speak of a Taco-Bell on a Air Force base that's leased to the USAF but i think it's wishful thinking.

I personally go to different places depending on what I want. Some have better burritos/tacos, some have better combo plates, etc.

Its probably a sign I eat too much of it.

My wife made burritos the other day and she's white as gently caress but goddamn was it delicious. White girl burritos. That combo of beef, beans, jalapenos and salsa and whatevs just cannot go wrong :mexico:

Then in the morning we made bacon eggs and hash browns for breakfast burritos and that owned too.

Well thats my mexican food story, basically it's easy to make a bastardized version and it's still :krad: so you should just go for it at home

There's real mexican food and "lovely mexican" which is all the gringo stuff and both are really great for different reasons.

Also there's a ton of Salvadoran places near me and pupusas are amazing. Slaw piled high.

There used to be a little hole-in-the-wall joint near I once lived, with all the lovely decor and mariachi music and everything. It was Mexican but it was the blandest food I ever tasted. And everyone working there was Mexican. I have no idea what their deal was, I never knew Mexican food COULD be bland.

They closed down like a year later lol
