The rape and pillaging of Mexican and Texan food.
"Taco stands probably have germs. Let's go to Casa Ole."
Next time you visit a Mexican Restaurant, skim through the menu, and look for these two key words.
“Soft” and/or “Crispy”
If you see these words, politely leave. If you’re a polite person, that is.
This may seem extreme, but please realize that this means that everything on this menu is going to consist of these ingredients, and nothing else:
- Ground Beef
- Lettuce
- Tomatoes
- Refried Beans
- Rice
- Cheese
- Fried chips
- Pickled jalapenos
Please look at these ingredients, and think of all the restaurants that serve absolutely nothing but different combinations of these ingredients, aside from pseudo-margaritas made with Jose Cuervo and “sweet and sour mix” that will burn a hole in your stomach lining. Don’t get me started on Señor Cuervo.
I’d cite examples, but shit, you know what I mean. Each of these ingredients are dirt cheap, and since this has been the standard for “Mexican” restaurants for about twenty years, it is your duty as a consumer to stop eating there.
Keep making these people rich, and they’ll keep shutting down taco stands by shoveling the same boring ingredients down your gullet.
The good news:
Great Mexican food is abound!
