Obscure fact about Mexican food.

Atilla the Hun’s younger brother left his family and sailed to the Americas, settling in what is Mexico today. Little is known about his life, but he did create a food that became very popular and is used there even today. A little known contribution of Tortilla the Hun.

Mexican cuisine has given us both the greatest (burrito) and worst (tamale)

I hate tamales, unless I get them from Victor's Tire shop. He's got a restaurant

I love the jalapeno and cheese tomales, but they're all good.

Rajas con Queso are probably my favorite tamal filling.

Tamales can be amazing with the right toppings and the correct masa to filling

I once bought tamales out of the trunk of a car in 29 Palms, CA. They were amazing.

burritos aren't Mexican, nor are nachos. But they're both delicious so who cares

Don't think burritos have a conclusive origin story. Lots of folk tales, some

If the Mexicans don't want credit for them, we should take it.

Absolutely. One of the greatest inventions of our time, next to the airplane,

The issue is that everyone wants credit for it, but can't tell for sure.

a burrito is just a rolled taco, there's no 'inventing' there

No it’s not. Tortillas big enough to fold aren’t meant for tacos
