      I was born in Texas, but my dad's from Farmington, and I lived 6 years in Santa Fe. My grandmother would visit home chili season and bring back cases and cases. When I was growing up my mom had to become an expert in chili just for him. Which was a lot harder to do in Texas in the 90's than it is now. Now I can find almost anything I used to buy in Santa Fe in local grocery stores.

    Are there people that are mad about thanksgiving? I get it, the history behind it sucks, but the day itself is good, it's a way for friends and family to get together and hang out, im native american and my whole family celebrates it, and my tribe.

    Considering that Texas is very close to Mexico (as it LITERALLY BOARDERS IT), I feel like it would be a disservice is Texas didn't speak Spanish a bit - or at the very least understand it.

      white Texan here. it's unfortunately pretty common to have poor Spanish comprehension. conservatism has a cultural and political stranglehold on the state, so Mexicans/Mexican-Americans are treated like threats more than neighbors and Spanish classes in school have minimal efficacy.

      @@verdantViridity Plus, a lot of Texans are transplants from other places. Spanish definitely wasn't taught in Rural Ohio, and I didn't have it in North Carolina either. A lot of Indians (from India,) here are also dealing with learning/speaking English; adding Spanish might be a bit much to ask.
      I'd love it if there were classes offered for conversational Spanish. Maybe I need to look for those.
