Food is deeply ingrained in cultural identity, and is one way to learn about a community’s heritage, familial customs and values. In the U.S., Mexican food is one of the most popular cuisines, with 1 in 10 restaurants serving Mexican, according to recent findings from the Pew Research Center. This trend reflects an expanding Mexican American population, with 37.2 million people or 11.2% of the U.S. population tracing their ancestry back to Mexico.

I’ll eat anything but Mexican food is top tier gobbler fodder
i like things that are ergonomically easy to eat. the burrito form factor is freakin amazing. all in one, no utensils. its a utilitarian dream.
but when i go to a restaurant they destroy the utility. its suddenly on this plate covered is sauces! what?!
There are handheld burritos, and burritos. Where I’m from the handheld ones are sold to-go in foil but restaurants always drench theirs in sauce. You could ask for the sauce on the side, but you’re still supposed to eat it with a fork unless you’re in your car or walking around.
Might as well get an enchilada at that point. Corn tortilla > flour ever day.
Might as well get a tamale if you ask me. But a lot of people seem to enjoy the soakedy flour tortillas.
People are allowed to not enjoy the things you enjoy. I don’t like bananas either.
