Noah Belcher thats the secret of mexican food, and also thats why mexican food made in the US are so disappointing and bad for a real mexican. By the way, we don’t eat nachos whit cheese, and we don’t eat tacos whit rice.

[@smilexxi]

Handmade food is the way mexicans (and many others, like italians) show love. For example, our abuelitas will feed us non stop even if we are full; our dads will make a carne asada or barbacoa for the family, and our moms will give us a freshly handmade tortilla with butter or a pinch of salt. Food is a language that feeds the body, that feeds the soul.

While visiting in Sonora, my uncle and I were going for an hours long drive to get supplies for his store. On our way (at 5am) we stopped at this little brick house way out in the middle of no where. This widowed old lady lived there all alone and he would check on her at times. As poor as she was she invited us in and insisted on making breakfast: hot coffee, some fried eggs, beans and homemade flour tortillas. That was one of the best breakfasts ever and I've never forgotten her kindness. Oh on the way back my uncle dropped off: flour, rice, sugar, coffee, and other foods for the old lady. Seems he bought her food all the time. Guess he was kind too.

[@MrRatkilr]

When you are living alone in isolated area you want or value visitors. Someone to chat with or do something for them. When delivering meals on wheels to shut ins it made me sad they had no family to visit or help them. So many of them just wanted to chat and talk. But had other meals to deliver so could not chat for too long.

I am Swiss and lived in Switzerland most of my life ... my mother was Mexican (and my father Swiss german) .. I remember when she was doing Mole , she often invited many people for dinner. High level dinners with high level and well dressed people. For the occasion, sometimes she was doing Mole. What you see from this guy, like this impatience, an "overdone" emotion of expectation and at 24:50 his attitude ... is all true !! that is how i was feeling with my brother about the Mole of my mom. Ohh gosh .. .and the worse is that she was always doing waaaaaay more than needed because we would eat Mole for some more days for us, the family, at home. But sometimes, it was so good ... that invited people would still finish it ... meaning eating like 3 times what an adult would eat !! big was our frustration .. and sometimes she felt forced to make Mole again ... for us, the family. understanding our frustration. Mole is a unique dish ... truly unique. There is no such other dish in the world. I am 57yrs old, traveled A LOT in the world, ... My prefered foods are : Chateaubriand ... (french meat), Pekin lacked duck (China) ... well prepared caviar (with all the preparation and toasts) .... coocked and steamed lam from Azerbaidjan, In Qatar they did the same style of lam) ..... B U T my PREFERED DISH is chicken M O L E with frijoles and tortillas. The best dish in the word. Any mole will make it ... but the Oaxacan mole will just kill you.. THE BEST FOOD IN THE WORLD. (And again ... i traveled well , i truly lived on 4 continents (no Australia) and tried so many foods ... . . PS and Mexicans are amazing how they invite you at home ... : my casa es su casa .. is absolutely true.

[@r.g8725]

@bina nocht Frijoles are cooked beans - usually Pinto-type beans - , seasoned with salt and a couple of other ingredients for flavoring ( like garlic/onion, an herb or two). The Mexican herb epazote is usually added to beans while cooking, to counteract gas production in your digesting; it has a flavor too.

[@breukelynbee77]

This came up in my feed, I thoroughly enjoyed it. The Mexican culture is so diverse. My Mexican friends speaks 4 languages; 2 indigenous from Vera Cruz, Spanish and English. I've been exposed to the cuisine and people for about 20 yrs now and I love them. They are loyal, generous and the food is much more than many of us thought. Please include Mexico in your prayers. God bless Mexico forever! 🇲🇽

Watching this video made my mouth water! No joke! Chicken and mole is, by far, my favorite Mexican dish. Its something my grandmother made when I was young, so this really took me back. I'm 53 now and I can't tell you how much I miss those days of being at grandmas house when she worked for hours to make this delicious dish. I love you grandma, and thank you.

[@Imthebrownunicorn]

Brittanya Hope Milagro exactly!!! But the news is very much at fault. I spent a few weeks in various parts of Mexico recently and it was amazing! However I did notice that the news in Mexico does to its citizens what USA news does to us. Anyone who watches news in Mexico would think that if we stick our heads out the door of our homes a terrorist will blow us up! And we see that in Mexico you will be shot by a cartel if you set foot there. It’s all exaggerated on both sides...BIG TIME! I as well as many other tourists I encountered while in Mexico had a FANTASTIC TIME! I was walking in the plaza at 11:00 pm with a bunch of other people eating delicious food, talking, and laughing. It was great! Can’t wait to go back at the end of the year

What a fascinating video. When I was in my late teens I would cross the street and hang out with my brother-in-laws family (before he was my Cunado). Before mealtime his mom and sisters would make tortillas and prep for whatever meal they were having. I was always invited to eat with them and I never turned the opportunity down. I have to say, this was an eye opener for what I have missed. You are very fortunate to have experienced this.

[@oatcaramellatte8206]

I’m mexican and I was so happy when reading all of the nice comments and the guy on the video being so happy of being there.

Kathleen Heinick that was very nice of them but they also got paid. do you think they would make Molle at a moment's notice without getting paid.
