Why does /ck/ hate mexican food so much?
It has shitty ingredients, like corn, green (unripe) chili peppers, green tomatoes, white (not yellow) onions, and limes. You can't make good food using shitty ingredients.

Mestizos have no surviving indigenous cuisine. Everything is an Arab/Spanish hybrid, like the people whp conquered Mexico: Moriscos (aka) Conquistadors.

they introduced the two most pretentious foods in modern history: avocado and lime
Tex Mex is good but that's American food inspired by Mexicans

>lime is pretentious?

Because it's a complete fucking lie. Over here in the states, when we get Mexican food, we get delicious stuff like like tongue and carne asada tacos, but when we went to places in Mexico, all they sold was either bland stuff you eat at home (Chile de chicaron, eggs and nopales) or weird international mashups (a calzone made using a huge tortilla and a million capers).
And then, when we went to a fancy restaurant in Cabo to eat seafood, they served lobsters from Maine and fish from Chile. Despite being a restaurant right on the marina!

given the replies above the answer would seem to be that /ck/ doesn't have a fucking clue what is or is not "mexican food"

You don't even have to go far to find the good stuff. What restaurant did you go to?
>>8985789
>Go to tourist places for Americans
>Get served generic home Mexican food
No shit
>>8985789
If you ate any tacos from street vendors, though, you probably got some dog meat. Not joking.
