Being Mexican
Man, I bet it must be really tough to be Mexican. I've had homemade tacos and nachos for dinner the last few days (with Boca meat substituted for hamburger), and my digestive system is hating me. So, do Mexicans' bodies just adapt and digest Mexican food normally, or do Mexican people just get used to the effects of their cuisine? I hope its not the latter, because that would mean some smelly casas. I bet the dogs don't get blamed for as much in Mexico, though. They get off scot free, even if it is their fault, because nobody can tell the difference. Or, maybe they get unfairly blamed for every single offensive smell. Whose idea was it to make refried beans anyways? What are refried beans? Is it possible to eat one refried bean? Americans eat way too much fried food, but Mexicans are frying their food twice! If you're on a diet in Mexico, and the waiter asks you if you want refried beans, do you politely ask for beans that have only been fried once? I know, Mexicans do not always eat the food that Americans refer to as "Mexican" food. Sometimes its worse! There is a place in Green Bay called Taco Burrito Mexico (I kid you not), run by Mexican immigrants, that has the greatest burritos mankind has ever produced. In fact, historians place them between the assembly line and the cotton gin for greatest ideas ever. But they are certainly not better for my digestive system than any American Mexican food I've eaten. Its pretty much just a doughy ball of sour cream, cheese, lettuce, and steak about the size of a forearm. Mmmm.... maybe its not that far of a drive from the Twin Cities to Green Bay...
