As mexican I love corn, but i can see they try the yellow corn. In Mexico we eat with white corn because the yellow corn it’s sweet. In the North of Mexico we put butter, mayonnaise, cream, chili powder, sauce like La Botanera, peanuts, chips, yellow cheese, cotija, green lime and tomatillo sauce. I recomend you to try it.

[@irisfigueroa5249]

Mexico has thousands and thousands of recipes unable to be counted and estimated by food experts. Every state in Mexico 🇲🇽 has thousands of recipes varying from region to region within each state. There is indigenous Mexican cuisine very rich in culture and very complex. Mexico has food that’s influenced by our European, Arabic, African ( throughout) and Asian ( in north Mexico and Baja California Mexico) ancestors. Our food, drinks, desserts and snacks are out of this world so proud that Mexican food has been recognized by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

[@yes1958]

Europeans barely made an influence on Mexican food, much less the Arabs, Asians, and Africans. Mexican food is mostly native based. Also African, Asian, and Arabic ancestors LOL? Those groups don't even exceed 5% of the population even if you put them together.

They call them esquites from the center (Mexico City, Edomex, Guanajuato, Jalisco, Querétaro, etc.) and all the south (Puebla, Guerrero, Michoacán, Chiapas, Oaxaca, etc.) but some north states like Sinaloa call them Esquites too. in North states like Nuevo Léon, Coahuila and Chihuahua, we call them "Elote En Vaso" (literally, corn in a cup), in states like Tamaulipas and San Luis Potosí, they call them "Trolelote", and in states like Sonora, they call them "Coctél de Elote" (Corn Cocktail), the weirdest name is on Aguascalientes, where they call them "Chascas" or something like that. But hey, it's still the same thing, just wiht different names Si hay algún otro mexicano leyendo esto, sientanse libres de corregirme en las respuestas
