In any case, Mexican food is not monolithic. There are numerous styles. None of them are really like Taco Bell, which I guess is based more on Tex-Mex.

Homan is a shallow-minded piece of shit. One of the best ways to get to know a culture is to try its food. It's really great to try new things, except for American dipshits who expect the world to cater to them.

Real or not, there are plenty of Americans who don't know anything about Mexico or its food.
