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.
obligatory “oh, you just haven’t been to the right place yet; i know a great spot!”
I have a very good answer for them- I don’t really like peppers or beans. I also don’t really like the way Mexican meat is seasoned and I don’t really like any of the Mexican cheese I’ve had. None of it is a dealbreaker if other people want to go to Mexican food, but it would be far from my first choice.
On an objective level, your opinion is wrong. However some people have wrong tastes and that’s okay.

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?!
People are allowed to not enjoy the things you enjoy. I don’t like bananas either.
ha, i feel this kinda. i get shit all the time when tell people i ‘dont really like indian food’ … they go on and on about the tasting this and that and spices and blah blah blah… finally they ask me what i dont like about it… and i say ‘the texture’
‘oh’.
Indian food is a huge variety mind you. Even the texture of tandoori chicken?
