Welcome, Mexican readers!

Welcome to our visitors from Mexico!

Did you know that our American brothers to the south represent the 12th largest economy in the world by gross domestic product by purchasing power parity? No, I don't know what "by purchasing power parity" means, but I can't spend all day on Wikipedia, can I?

About Mexican food: A lot of what we think of as "Mexican" food is better described as southwestern or Tex-Mex. Look, Mexico is a big country. Imagine someone serving hog maw, scrapple and York Peppermint Patties to to a Mexican and saying, yeah, that's what they eat in America. It's kinda true, but doesn't tell the whole story.

My point here is that Mexican food kicks butt in ways most of us don't even know about. And I am not talking about eating ant eggs.

Really.
