I require shitty, inauthentic Mexican recipes.
Because when I go out for ethnic food, I want something safe and genuine - so when I want Mexican, I go to a NICE Mexican place: Chi Chis.

Just like when I want Italian, I go to Olive Garden, not one of those creepy places with weird food run by Italians.

I want my Mexican and my Italian cooked by white guys, served by white women, in safe, pleasing restaurants, because I want the *REAL* thing, not some individual Mexican's or Italian's idea of what "homestyle" is.

8. My theory on Velveeta...
a processed, phony cheese product for a processed, phony world of processed, phony Americans.

(Oooh. I'm sure I'm going to get flamed for that! Add Velveeta cheese lovers to particular ethnic groups, public breast feeding women, and women of a particular pants size. :evilgrin:)

11. LOL! but you know, somethines processed nas ty is GOOD.
I mean, I'm all down with a suitably moldy, raunchy foot smelly cheese, French or goat, or any one of numerous kinds of English, such as stilton perhaps, but when one wants the creamy plastic goodness of the velveeta (WITH rotel, please) well, there isn't quite anything that cooks down nearly so well! :rofl:

15. You mean Panda Express isn't real Chinese food?
At the nearby PE, the entire staff speaks Spanish and not much English. So it's Chinese food cooked by immigrants from Mexico. Hmmmmm. Guess it's a comfusion of ethnicities, but then it's all by rote anyway.

19. Oddly, last time I went out for real Mexican food
I was with a friend whose buddy from the Czech Republic was visiting. After dinner, as my American friend and I paid the bill, the Czech guy talked in fluent Spanish with the restaurant staff. I felt totally out of the loop.

Czech guy, meet Mexican guy, discuss. I'll be over here.

:dunce:

13. Start with one inauthentic Mexican. Chop into bite sized pieces, grill
for twenty minutes, add peppers and shit, stir, and serve hot on lightly toasted wonder bread.
