Mexican food
Salsa and tortillas
Mexican food is the cuisine originating in Mexico, characterized by corn, beans, chilies, tomatoes, and spices like cumin and cilantro.
Dishes include tacos, enchiladas, tamales, and mole.
What Americans call Mexican food often refers to Tex-Mex—a related but distinct style featuring yellow cheese, flour tortillas, and combinations like nachos and chimichangas that developed along the border.
