    Mexicans do bastardize the cuisine of every other country (much like the US).

    For example, most sushi rolls come with cream cheese in them. You have to ask for your roll without cream cheese.

    However, there is also tons more delicious food to find here (also like the US).

        Interesting, I’m not that familiar with the history. I’m from the US living here. But al pastor is delicious (adobada here in tijuana).

          Came from Lebanese immigrants, now a regular fast food.
          Obviously they didn’t use pork but lamb (like the pita/shoarma we got to know in Europe) but Mexicans love their pork.
