And, I introduced it to my Swedish husband, who now only asks me to cook rice and beans. I recommend people try it. Use bacon on your beans too, onions, garlic, and season well... Very important...

[@niennaarcturus]

from Brazil here and we eat rice and beans everyday.

[@AndyGarcia-ch1ci]

Are rice and beans a large part of your meals? I ask this because I am not too close to anyone in the Mexican culture. But all the Mexican restaurants I've been to make rice and beans usually a small side, where the tacos are highlighted or the enchilada or tamal is like the highlight of the meal. I am venezuelan and grew up in south fl and most of the Caribbean cultures seem to give you excessive amounts of rice and beans, and they tend to be more or the star of the show in the meal, or at least the co star if that makes sense. So I was genuinely curious if it's like that normally, does it vary family to family, or is the rice and beans just a smaller side?

[@An-kw3ec]

@Andy García, thats exactly how most eat it, but our way of cooking them is plane compared to ther countries, just rice and beans could be considered quite lazy as a main dish, the equivalent for Americans of eating a sandwich with just mayonnaise and ham.

[@wickgirl12345]

@@AndyGarcia-ch1ci Well that's cuz you're going to restaurants... obviously rice and beans won't be the main dish lol in comparison to a homecooked meal. A lot of mexicans make rice and beans everyday with their meals, it's basically a staple (sometimes just rice, or just beans, or both but always these main ingredients). Usually as a side with a main dish (usually chicken or beef). However it's not uncommon to also eat just straight up rice and beans. Though ours is a bit different like the way we make rice is tomato-based in comparison to the white rice shown here (though maybe that's regional, since I'm sure others eat seasoned white rice).

[@AndyGarcia-ch1ci]

@@wickgirl12345 That's interesting. Yes I grew up eating white rice but not like plain white rice that white people make lol. My white rice is always seasoned with garlic, olive oil, little salt.

The 🇵🇷mami stole my heart already. EDIT: She also stole the contest! 🎉

[@gg5508]

She didn’t steal it, she won it!!

[@cassandrarobins786]

Wow. I LOVE the fact even though they’re from different latin countries, they can differentiate which one is from which correctly! Shows a lot of unity! That’s really beautiful. Also, they were truthful without being disrespectful. 👌🏾

[@carmellabrown3335]

I love how all of them were nice and honest. I also appreciated how they could tell where it was from

[@sheeshshan]

This was such a pleasure to watch. All dishes looked amazing. All contestants were radiant. Bring them back. 🎉🎉

[@youaintgettingmyhandle]

All the girls are beautiful, I love their energies. Dashay looks like a Dominican Nia Long to me though.

[@moooncestay741]

These ladies seem to be very gentle to each other's food, I love it!

[@managingmarlys]

Loved that you all knew where each dish was from. And the honesty, absolutely loved your guys honesty instead of bashing someone's dish or scoring low for very little reason. Cuba, the bits of rice at the bottom of the pot that gets a little crusted...yesss now, that was the part you fight to get as kids, loved loved loved this. Beautiful souls ladies!

[@emilyjade321]

The ladies all have really great energy. Glad to see them not all hating on each other. It’s 8am here and now I feel like rice and beans SOS

[@trepitts336]

Hi all. I like the Title of your video. Afro Latinas! The fact thst you guys are proud of being Afro Latinas is lovely . Great jobs showing the Afro Latinas Foods.

[@Bhroski]

As a cuban I already knew once Alana said she mixed up the recipe, it wasn't gonna land high. Perfection doesn't need change.

[@PattyAlonso]

Why were her black beans so dry???? 😫
