MEXICO IS COUNTRY #24 (!!!!!). This was our very first time in Mexico City, and we hit the ground running with a thorough food tour, trying 15 different Mexican foods in less than 24 hours. 😁 That night was the fullest our stomachs have ever felt, and Claire unfortunately got a pretty severe allergic reaction to the pulque (cross-contamination from pine nuts in the pulqueria) after we ended the video. 😮‍💨 Despite all that, WE REGRET NOTHING! 😂 Everything was absolutely delicious. Have you tried any of these Mexican foods, and if so, what’s your favorite? 🇲🇽

[@LookUpwards]

Hi there, How are you both? If you do not mind me sharing; a well-planned, organic and unrefined plant-based diet (consuming edible raw plant foods where possible so as not to denature enzymatic activities beneficial to the human system. If disagreeing on this matter, please try planting some steamed carrots and see if they will grow; if they fail to, it is because they are 'dead' plant food that cannot fully nourish one's 'living' cells) consisting of organic fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts, seeds and whole grains is the best diet to provide mankind with ultimate health and longevity. These foods, fresh and grown in rich soil, are found all the essential vitamins, calcium, carbohydrates, fats, fibre, minerals, protein and water needed to make good blood and enjoy health. Please avoid meat alternatives that contain harmful preservatives and additives e.g vinegar, a corrosive agent. Food toxicity and nutrient deficiency (e.g white bread, white rice and white sugar) are a deadly combination as one is hindering the body's building materials needed to action healing whilst at the same time taxing the system with more damaging toxic things, thus bringing about disease and possibly even an early death. GOD Bless 💙💙💙

Welcome to Mexico 🇲🇽!I'm a Mexican living in Michigan and it's the first time I've watched your videos and I've already subscribed, Enjoy my beautiful and beloved Mexico!! Regards

[@erasmo231ify]

Yeah pulque is not for everyone. Im Mexican and its not of my liking either.

[@user-zh6om8ti5m]

About dipping the churros: there's this culinary habit in Mexico of "chopear", which means dipping the sweet snacks (usually small pastries, bread or cookies) into your beverage like coffee, chocolate, milk, atole, etc. That's why it's more usual to dip the churros in a chocolate beverage, as the thicker chocolate is nor very usual (that's considered more gourmet or at least it's not a mexican thing)

[@carolmartin4413]

What a fun tour! Mexico City is one of the most beautiful cities I've ever been to....just the landscape; the physical mentality of smiles, singing and approachability of people; the cafes, the nightclubs, the architecture/museums, the churches...just the elegance of aged settlement. I live for tostadas, tacos, burritos...in that order. 😊 Thanks for the tour...and the realived memories of my favorite city! 🖐 Wisconsin says hi, Claire and Chad!

[@ChadandClaire]

When we got a little taste of YOUR al pastor tacos back in December, we KNEW we had to fly to Mexico to delight in it every day. 🤭 We didn’t even know it existed until you made it for us!!! Thank you for introducing wonderful foods to you! 😁💖

[@bodvargregersen5161]

The food looked delicious and appetizing. If the food is as tempting as lt looks, then I cannot wait to see what the rest of Mexico City holds for the tourist.

[@ChadandClaire]

There are ENDLESS things to do in Mexico City, and we are very excited to share the next few videos with you. 💘 We’ve got some fun, silly, and epic videos coming your way! 😁🥰

[@vanessacorral4566]

[@antonios111]

Great video, loved the content, even as a vegetarian.. The lilac flowers, come from the Jacaranda tree, truly beautiful in CDMX, the churros can be eaten however you like…

[@ChadandClaire]

Wow- thank you so much for watching!!! 💖 We will have to try a vegetarian Mexican food tour next time! 🤭😁 And thanks for letting us know about the churros! We shall eat them free of debate next time 😂😂😂

[@procarionta28]

I really love you came to Mexico and enjoy the food, is so delicious. I believe you went to really pricy stops, maybe safer for the tummy if you are not used to spicy/condimented food. Hope you keep enjoying your trip and the glorious mexican cuisine 🎉

[@sandrarubio4734]

I was thinking the same thing when I saw the prices.

[@kaiashleyEd]

One of my favorite placess EVERRR!!! If you guys end up making it to Colombia next, i'd love to see you!!! 😁

Love the video! Random question, where did you buy the dress you are wearing. It is beautiful. :)

[@raffaojeda]

haha you had a really good drunk with pulque! Another good video, my gosh how can you eat so much food and desert!

[@joneugenio4774]

Are those water based drinks made with filtered water? I’m always hesitant to try them bc of the GI related issues with the water.

[@ChadandClaire]

I would LIKE to say that they are made with filtered water, because they were never served with ice, and we felt completely fine after drinking it. However, we can’t confirm that! Our stomachs might be made of steel at this point, after eating so many mystery foods around the world haha 😂, but I also suffer from GI related issues and had no problem! 💖 Hope this helps! 🥰

[@julioc4978]

Great video, Looks like Mexico has got more expensive. I used to pay less than $1 for a horchata frescas lol Cheers

[@ChadandClaire]

Thank you for watching!!! 💖 It definitely has gotten a bit more expensive- we visited a different region of Mexico in 2019, and the prices have certainly gone up by 2024. It seems like everywhere is getting a little more expensive year after year hahaha.

[@kaleconmoras]

@@ChadandClaire no fue la región, fue la taquería, en Ciudad de México hay taquerías locales que obvio no son tan turísticas que tienen precios más económicos. También están los "mercados" que tienen área de alimentos, donde un agua de frutas frescas cuesta de $1 a $2 dolares....

[@evelynhernandez-mejia5695]

I definitely think you ordered a champurrado which is a Mexican hot chocolate. Which can also be used to dip your churros but traditionally, it’s a drink.

[@Chino520NJ]

As a Mexican, here it is safe to say we like to dip our churros in anything, so you're good.😂

[@theroadletstravel]

Spoiler alert! You can dip ANYTHING in the hot chocolate haha ok ok not everything BUT another amazing thing to dunk in the hot chocolate is the conchas you guys had 😭 I love that you guys made this video. As a Mexican myself, I love our culture but especially our food! Mole is top 3 dish for me, it’s so goooood! Also, I looove ceviche but some of the best I’ve had was Peruvian ceviche

[@abrahamfragoso5257]

Thanks for coming to our country. Idk if you lied about pulque because almost every persone hates it. Lol

[@SomeDudeNameNate]

Just a heads up that sometimes quesadillas don't have cheese in Mexico City.

[@EricM-gm5wz]

I think you just got a tortilla 😂. Quesadillas always have cheese, it’s kinda in the name.

[@sandrarubio4734]

She's correct, although it's in the name some come without cheese​@@EricM-gm5wz

[@SomeDudeNameNate]

@@EricM-gm5wz talk to anyone in Mexico City, and they'll tell you the contrary!

[@jr3753]

⁠@@EricM-gm5wzno he’s right

[@arleendiaz1570]

The hot chocolate drink is to "dunk" as opposed to dipping in a sauce.😉

[@ChadandClaire]

Ahhh- thank you for giving us an answer!!! 💖 It feels good to finally know hahahah 🤭😁

[@tsoen-shinlam7621]

Concha is the predecessor of pineapple bun. According Wiki, "In the 1940s a family named the Ng family, who had been among those deported during the war, opened their own restaurant in Hong Kong. Drawing inspiration from the traditional Mexican pastry known as a concha, they decided to create their own version with a slight twist. This unique variation came to be known as pineapple buns or Ba Lo Bao, despite not containing any actual pineapple as an ingredient."

[@HyHoMyLife168]

Mexican food tour in Mexico City, the two of you went out to eat and drink very happily, Hello beautiful girl and handsome boy ❤👍

[@ChadandClaire]

Yes! Mexico City was such a beautiful place for a food tour, and the cuisine was simply exquisite! 😋 Thank you so much for watching and for leaving such a kind comment! 💖

[@mexi72]

Hot Chocolate with churros would be more of a breakfast food while churros with dipping chocolate would be a dessert. In Pujol Mex Restaurant they a mother mole that's been going for 150 days. It's like a sourdough starter that if you keep feeding it it will last forever. As a finisher, they give you a large circle of mother mole with a younger mole in the centre and tortillas to dip.

[@user-zh6om8ti5m]

Interesting, but everyday mexicans don't go to Pujol, so that's not a real mexican experience.

[@selfscience]

In your chapters you have "alma central", it is called Alameda Central. "Conai", what is that? El morro is ok, El Cardai is wrong, it is El Cardenal. Then Pia, it is Pulquería. You did the chapters drunk.

I think Mexico city food is over rated. My fiance lives in Veracruz and she dislikes Mexico city food. Many Mexicans that i met here in Mexico city told me that they agree that Mexico city food is so so and eventually i would get food poisoning. Many Americans living here have told me this and A spanish church that i went to asked me if i got sick yet.

[@erickalcala5642]

It completely depends on where you eat. If you keep eating street food, then yeah, you’re probably going to get food poisoning eventually because your stomach is not used to it. But that could happen anywhere in Mexico, not just Mexico City. The food scene in the capital is unique anywhere in the world, since you can find all types of Mexican food, from Tijuana to Tapachula. There’re also top notch restaurants for every price range. It’s one of the biggest cities in the world, there’re tons of variety. Oaxaca is the only place that I would say rivals Mexico City’s food scene.

[@user-zh6om8ti5m]

It is not overrated, it is simply it's own: Mexico is so big and diverse, that even when they are all mexicans, culture including food is very different from one state to the other. To me, seems like you just go with whatever people tell you... and the beauty of Mexico is just discovered by those who are the opposite of you.

[@LeMagnifiqueDoubleAgent-cj4zo]

Don’t take any advice from these two when it comes to food. I’ve watched a few of their “food tours,” including in cities where I’ve lived and it can be concluded with certainty that they don’t know where to eat, or even what they’re eating half of the time, and can say little more than ‘it tastes good’.
