Why did America fuck up their version of Mexican food so bad? Instead of working with Mexican ingredients and adding a unique touch to American food they just fry everything using the same ingredientsin everything or cover it in yellow cheese. Bobby flay is a good example of what Mexican-American should look like.

American 'Mexican Food' usually has the texture and appearence of drunk throw-up.

Literally I could walk into any Mexican Restaurant, order something, eat it, puke it back onto the plate, and I bet I could send it back to the kitchen for a refund.

no mexicans or tejanos were involved in the development

Most Mexican restaurants that I've been to that have food like this are run and owned by Mexican immigrants.
>>
>>7846850
They work for the clientele. Which is why youll see margaritas and nachos in Oaxacan restaurants in the US.
>>
>>7846858
so why are they cooking it if authentic Mexican food is better supposedly

because Americans inherently like the objectively worse version more? I don't understand

Tex-Mex is just our regional cuisine man. There's still restaurants around here that serve the traditional stuff. Mexicans brought their barbacoa and al pastor and Americans brought the cheese and fried shit. If you can't enjoy it, that's on you. I'll admit it looks like slop sometimes, but it's the most delicious slop I've ever tasted.
>>
>>7846860
Because Americans correlate Margaritas and mission burritos with Mexican food, hence why you will see it in some traditional restaurants. Same reason why El Salvadorians has Mexican food in restaurants, to attract Mexicans and the such

that looks pretty bad desu. The sauce looks like its a canned sauce and the rice looks shit desu.

it's probably some white hipster fuck trying to stir shit

mexicans don't care, unless they're some unfortunate "chicano studies" major at uc berkley, in which case i doubt they are eating fideo at abuela's house. too preoccupied with protesting, the probably stick to organic vegan.

everyone says chipotle is gringo shit, but the local one I used to go to was always staffed by mexicans and over half of the people in line at any given time were ordering in spanish, so it must not be that bad.

not inherently, but americans have tastes and traditions and access to ingredients and equipment that influenced migrant cooks to adapt their cuisine. pretty fucking common. any cuisine arising from cultural fusion with america or britain in the last couple of centuries is kinda shitty because we didn't have the agriculture or infrastructure to actually translate the cuisine wholesale so it got adulterated with preserved foods and inferior substitutions.

Because in America we have to turn everything into a cheeseburger. Tacos get made with ground beef and topped with cheese. Spaghetti and meat sauce? Go heavy on the meat, and cover it with cheese. Pizza? Be sure to put enough neat on there.

The only thing we haven't managed to turn into a cheeseburger is Chinese food, but we make up for that with extra salt, fat and sugar.

Salvadorans by me faked me out, I went to a taco place which had a Mexican flag on the sign, then i go in and it was clearly Salvadoran owned (there are barely any Mexicans where I live, but a lot of Salvadorans).It wasn't very good.

That being said, actual Salvadoran food is really good.

I think I'm gonna try Mole Poblano for the first time today
>>
>>7850666
It can be delicious. Mole is one of those sauces that either taste really great or really bad. A restaurant is only as good as its mole
>>
>>7850690
This place has really good reviews, but it's mostly known for its burritos which is weird because it's run by Poblanos most likely. So it's a relatively authentic place but with some Tex Mex options.
>>
>>7850718
Just eat some Mole Negro instead
