Most of European cuisine is not spicy at all. Especially in countries further north. I'm from Poland and people look at me all weird when I eat whole raw Cayenne Peppers, or slices of Habanero with my dinner. They say I'm going to burn a hole in my stomach, since most consider pickled jalapenos to be too hot for their taste. Well nowadays You can maybe find a couple of pizza and burger places here and there, that offer carolina reaper sauce, which is quite spicy indeed. So spicy in fact that after a couple of hours it burns after peeing for a moment.

[@trophybuckle3235]

If I may add to the “As a Mexican™️” input: Uncle Roger’s comment about too many spices interfering with the simplicity of Mexican cuisine is _spot on_ - much of Mexican seasoning of chicken or beef is salt, pepper, and _maybe_ lime, onion, beer, and/or a specific chile. None of my tías’ recipes use cumin or paprika or chili powder, and oregano is used as a condiment in specific circumstances.

[@biguattipoptropica]

Nah, I completely disagree. Although mexican cuisine can be simple there are a lot, and I really mean A LOT, of dishes that are complex AF. Just imagine a mole, asado norteño, menudo, pozole, etc. Alv, it's like an infinite list of spices.

[@trophybuckle3235]

@@miguelmatienzoguer That’s fair. But those are specific dishes. I guess I’m referring more to the typical dishes people think of as Mexican food: asadas or carnitas for tacos, beans, guacamole, salsa, etc. The flavor profiles are _not_ the tex-mex chile powder/cumin/smoked paprika business.

It’s a hard yet hilarious video to watch. I wanted to judge but then the cotija cheese comment made me think.. I live in northern Mexico (Coahuila) and cannot even get cotija cheese here. I have to buy some when I visit my in laws in southern Mexico. Some people here don’t even know what it is (yeah I was shocked too). the point is, if I live IN Mexico and can’t find it easily, I imagine in the UK they would find it even more difficult. The other thing is…. If you don’t know how something should be made or how it should taste it makes it very difficult to make it. When I first met my Mexican hubby I wanted to cook him some authentic Mexican food, so I bought a book, found a recipe, spent a fortune on ingredients, cooked for 6 hours and in the end I did it wrong because I used a wrong ingredient which was one of the most important. It tasted good but it was wrong. Once I began to taste real Mexican cooking, it became easier to cook it. I know there are some Mexicans who live in the UK but let’s be real, there’s not enough for probably 99% of the population to have ever tried authentic Mexican cuisine.. really the show would have been better if they brought some people from Mexico to cook and show them what a real taco taste’s like and then they try to recreate it..

What's really painful is this wasn't in Greece, this was in the UK where a lot of required ingredients are readily available to some extent. Sour cream, to cherry pick from you comment, is in every corner store. Decent chillies are a little harder but one of the major supermarket chains stock a decent selection of dried chillies and/or their respective flakes in their larger stores. I absolutely stand by their being fantastic food from a massive variety of ethnicities in the UK, but this disgrace absolutely felt like we were back in the 50s in terms of taking other cuisines, and getting rid of everything important flavour (and culture) wise. Authentic Mexican food isn't super common in the UK for many reasons, but it doesn't take much looking to find decent Hispanic food in any major UK city. That's being said, doing something along the lines of Indian/South Asian Street food would have been far far more appropriate. The availability of ingredients and knowledge of these cuisines is far more available in the UK, and offers a huge variety of baking related dishes that could have been done.

@@Joetheknight406 'pee-coe de gajjo' or 'pee-coe de gayo'? I know what it is but not sure how to pronounce it. So there goes your theory😆 Must have something to do with Spanish not being as prevalent in western Europe as it is in the Americas. In my language: people pronounce the double L in 'gallo'. Plus: if we hear Spanish it is usually 'Castellano', which sounds different from the Spanish you hear in the Americas. So it's not surprising we don't know how to pronounce pico de gallo like a Mexican or 'Tejano'. I also think people would give me weird looks if I started ordering my tex Mex pronouncing the dishes like a Mexican national. "Two burrrrrritos and a side of arrrrrrrrrozzzzz, por favorrrrrrrr" when the person behind the counter is as gernanic as lederhosen or as British as two bags of crisps and a pint of lager. 'Oh! You mean Pee-coe the gallow! Eat in or take-away? Coke, Fanta or Sprite?" 😆

There's a lot of good food in Europe that Mexican food just can't compete with.

I literally burst laughing after seeing how she “PEELED” the avocado. 🤣😂💀

[@theclassicalstudent]

It’s amazing she didn’t slice her hand wide open

[@LydiAtheistLady]

Same!

[@ShadowClaw92]

I remember reading an artical about how basically people in the UK and Europe were going to hospitals and Emergency Rooms... because they didn't know how to open an avocado.

[@theclassicalstudent]

@@ShadowClaw92 something similar was going on in the States like eight-ten years ago. They called it “avocado hand” and it mostly came from people slipping while either turning the avocado on the knife or being WAAAAY too aggressive trying to remove the pit. That’s why Buzzfeed has spent so many years trying to sell that gadget that is basically the avocado-specific equivalent of safety scissors. Again, she is SUPER lucky she didn’t slice her hand wide open, especially bringing the knife towards herself like she was. They can say it wasn’t the case all they like, but this whole episode was the most bad-faith thing I’ve ever seen from the producers of this show.

[@Bluetree0502]

The last time I was in London I actually took pictures from menus that described “Mexican” items and texted them to my friends back home in Los Angeles for a laugh. Also… any menu item that described “California style” was simply a regular menu item that had a slice of avo on top.

[@larshofler8298]

Absolutely love that 🤣 You know there is a Californian dish called Chinese chicken salad, except it's not actually Chinese, they just put soy sauce and noodles in a regular salad

[@Smapti]

Meanwhile, in California, calling Mexican food "California style" usually means it has french fries in it :D

[@magdolyn]

That's like adding pineapple and calling it Hawaiian.

[@user-hr9oz8xv6n]

They do that in Seattle even..! if it has avocado, it is a California version.

[@Gr95dc]

I mean, if your reference for Mexican food was from LA, you're already off for quite a bit
