Aardvark! posted:there are multiple Chili's restaurants in Mexico lol I had to go to Austin for sad family reasons and I was able to cheer up one of the sad family members by just rhapsodizing enthusiastically about the fact that this restaurant I saw, Chili's, must clearly encapsulate true Tex-Mex

  Last time I was back home I think they were $1.33 now. They still use the original mechanical registers that spit out half dollar coins as change. I bet there are a bunch of old dudes who have their $X.49 order ready multiple times a week hoping to luck into a valuable coin.

 i figure this counts as Americana because it's the Dutch interpretation of tex mex food, which is distinctly American.

The tomato is also served with minimal preparation, which is also a very American thing to do. The customer may have specifically asked for NO CILANTRO, in which case the cilantro makes sense.

Oh neat! I was just watching a The Food That Built America episode that covered the creation of the Nabisco company and the Uneeda Biscuit and I want to say they showed this specific building. (it's a good show)

When I went to memphis the offerings at the grocery stores were pretty poor, the grapes were squishy, everything was a little wilted, and the fruit all looked a couple days past its prime. It was weird. States that dont touch an ocean are weird

It was weird. States that dont touch an ocean are weird Depending on what chain you went to, your mileage may vary. There's a massive squeeze right now for grocery stores between high end retailers (whole foods, etc), subscription stores (costco/sam's club), and all the dollar stores. Some of the grocery chains end up buying only what's left after the first two take their pick, which sometimes leaves them with really sad produce when the growing season is not in its prime.
