If you have never been exposed to or even seen people eat insects, it's very weird to you.

    I fell like you chose the wrong Mexican foods for people to try for the first time, México is full of flavors, taste and culture, we have rich dishes that you can find all over the country, even some of them are "Patrimonio cultural de la humanidad"... And you gave them crickets 😕 I'm not offended, it's just that i find eating crickets something very stereotypical about Mexican people. Maybe net time you can try different dishes like Pozole, Flautas, Tortas, Sopes, Tostadas or enchiladas. Or even Mexican street food like, papas con chile, nieve de garrafa, elote en vaso, Tostilocos or something like that. I love this videos btw✨

      “Pozole, flautas, tortas, sipes, tostadas or enchiladas” dude you just mentioned some of the most basic and most known Mexican dishes, the point of selecting those where that it would be the first time trying them, not something that they can get in most Mexican restaurants in East LA

    I loved Jayka's take on how foreign food should be described as different instead of weird or disgusting. Some of these dishes were created by indigenous communities, or by people during times of hardship, others are sustainable and incredibly healthy for you, etc. So, just because you're not familiar with something, it doesn't mean that others aren't. What is uncommon to you could be extremely well-known and loved by others.

    I'm from Guanajuato, México. and there we don't put corn in Menudo, we only have the corn for pozole. A little diced onion would have been good for the Menudo as well. Some plates are prepared different depending in the state you have them, so there are some states that actually put corn in Menudo.
    Also, as a kid we used to eat the Pinole as candy, like directly eating the powder. (not sure if other states do the same, just my personal experience here)
    Just have a complaint, they put "sopes de chapulines", but just served them a bowl of chapulines. Sopes are little discs made of corn dough which you serve them with the topings you like, such as mashed beans, meat, cream and so on. So I'm a little dissapointed when I saw only the bowl of chapulines over there. It would have been more enjoyable if they were seved a real sope.
    They could have served them the conchas with the atole, dipping the bread in the atole is the best!
    Although, it makes me happy to see actually mexican food being served and not Tex-Mex plates as I have seen in other chanels, so good job on that!

Its shape, its color, its flavor is not to the taste of any family to replace tortilla chips.The idea of ​​eating this fry with bland yellow liquefied cheese and sliced ​​jalapeño peppers is outrageous.

      @@indigo3896 Totally true. But for some reason it is considered a Tex-Mex food. Its invention is justified by chance and emergency, but the final or most popular version of the dish is not from the Mexican origin. Nachos are a temporary snack that had its moment. Perhaps that snack had its moment of birth during a tourist's visit to a nightclub.But that did not make that snack popular in Mexico, but in other parts of the world. If some people feel that this product deserves to be called a Mexican tradition, as they like, it is their wish, their life. But if you ask your Mexican grandmother for that snack, she'll tell you, "I don't make Sabritas fritangas. Take a few pesos. Buy them at the store."
