Best Mexican World Foods

Americans today definitely have a love affair with Mexican food

. Not so long ago Mexican Restaurants were found only west of the Mississippi. Today every major city has Mexican Restaurants as well as most small towns. The Taco is the new Hot Dog and Salsa is becoming more popular than ketchup.

But as Americans become more health conscious they worry about the unhealthy way Mexican food tends to be prepared north of the border. In this article I will highlight how Mexican food is prepared south of the border in a much healthier manner.

Most Mexican food that is made in Mexico is prepared with many vegetables. The food is prepared with many natural spices, some of these spices contain natural antioxidants. Natural spices can be very healthy.

Many Mexican dishes that are prepared in the USA bare little resemblance to dishes prepared in Mexico. The dishes in the USA are usually large and prepared with lard because Americans prefer that taste. Keep in mind most original Mexican dishes are passed down from generation to generation. The portions are not large and usually prepared with healthy fresh ingredients. The addition of large portions of sour cream and guacamole to most dishes is an American thing.

When choosing a Mexican restaurant I suggest you choose a small family owned restaurant that specializes in authentic Mexican dishes. Rather than going to one of the large advertised chain Mexican Restaurants. Because these establishments tend to prepare foods that have been changed to satisy the unsophisticated American palate.
