  • Join Grandma's Cookin' host Erik Kennon as he takes you on a tasting tour through Guanajuato, his favorite city in all of Mexico. You'll enjoy bustling Mexican markets, the truth about strawberries, sopa azteca atop an old bridge turned into a posh cafe, and a hole-in-the-wall tavern that serves delicious botanas (the Mexican equivalent to tapas) with every drink.

    Guanajuato, mi pueblo, ciudad encantada y detenida en el tiempo, sus calles hermosas y plazas tranquilas, su gente, su música, su color. Que lindo es mi pueblo, qué lindo es mi México....

      Guanajuato is very beautiful. It is also extremely safe compared to the rest of Mexico. In fact, pretty much all former Presidents go to live there after they leave office.

    Where did you get that information that strawberries are irrigated with sewage water? I can assure you that Mexican farmers and the health department are not that stupid and irresponsible, this is probably another rumor that Peruvians started.

    • @BestListTravel
      @BestListTravel  9 років тому +11

      +Erin and Bryan hi Erin and Bryan, this was not "my first trip out of the USA" I've been living in Mexico for several years and I do my research by talking to not only to all the local farmers, but also to the people who prepare the strawberries into other foods such as smoothies and juices! many of them have told me of their own personal friends and family who have gotten sick from eating strawberries that haven't been disinfected. this isn't a competition about the cleanliness of USA fruit vs Mexican fruit- this episode provides a health tip to keep people safe. most local people here disinfect their strawberries, and for good reason. have you ever lived in Mexico for years at a time and seen how people prepare food here? i have. my best friend works at a juice bar and it is her job to disinfect all of the strawberries every single day. quality restaurants and food stands disinfect their strawberries. low quality establishments do not. common knowledge here, Erin and Bryan! p.s. this comment was written from Mexico City where i have been living for a long time. peace out!
