Yep, I have a little soft pudge on my tummy (my best friend likes to poke my stomach because of it, but she loves pudge) And Greasy totally seems like the type of guy who really enjoys his food! Authentic Mexican food is delicious, so I can't blame him. He would love my grandma's cooking because she makes nearly everything from scratch--from tortillas to tamales.

I´m half Mexican and to make Mexican food is the best I can.
There was nobody who ever didn´t love my food.
I learned it on my self, I mean to cook like this.
It´s in my blood I think.
My mom didn´t teach me, cause, she´s Mexican, too, but she was adobted as she was a baby and grown up at German people.

Yeah I love to cook as well. I'm better at baking though. My mom and my grandma make very good Mexican food, and they can make things insanely spicy (which I love. I'm addicted to extremely spicy food) I learned how to cook mostly by myself too, and my parents like it so I don't have to depend on others for food or go out and spend a bunch of money eating out.
My mom was born in Mexico but later moved into Texas with 11 brothers and sisters, and since she was the middle child she had to clean up and cook for a bunch of her siblings.

Think this was hard, my mom lived not at her real parents, but she had no sisters and her German parents were right.
Here it´s not so easy to cook originally Mexican, cause some things you don´t get here.
You can´r get fresh Jalapenos here anywhere. And these are in very much things.
I like enchiladas the most, with much cheese.
But at baking I´m not so good, I like some cakes, but my mom isn´t good at this aswell and so she never tought me.

That's what I like about where I live. We live really close to Mexico and we have many Mexican stores and bakeries here that its easy to get Mexican products for food and stuff. I love enchiladas super spicy and with lots of cheese! Its one of my favorite Mexican dishes. I'm not sure why I'm good at baking but I've done it for a long time. Usually around holidays, I would help my mom with the desserts and she would give me little tips here and there. Have you had Mexican ice cream before? I like it a lot. And then there this really good hot chocolate... Abuelita. Have you tried that? My grandma used to make it a lot for me.

Hot chocolate is the best, dark and spice with fresh chili it must be.
I can make is by my self, but Mexican ice-cream we don´t have here, but we have much Italian ice-cafes.

That's cool! The only Italian things we have here are mostly Italian restaurants. Some have Italian soda but that's about it.

Italian restaurants we have a lot, too.
But more then the ice cafes we don´t have, too.

I don´t wanted to write turkey, thought this is a bird, LOL!

LOL I know what you're talking about. One of my friends visited Turkey. We don't have many foreign types of food here, except maybe Sushi from Japan. We do have some specialty shops but they're small and hard to find.

We have those, too, but only Asian and Turkey shops, no Mexican shops.
I don´t find that so nice.
But hey you have sushi there?
For years I never taste that, but a few weeks ago I tried and it was fabiolous!
I thought raw fish wouldn´t taste good, but it does!

Yeah I love sushi! There's a few places for sushi over here and so many Mexican shops (even Mexican pizza XD) Yeah sushi tastes delicious, and it's pretty good for you. I like tuna. There's some sushi shops run by actual Japanese people (and since we go there a lot they know us)

My mom would never eat sushi in a town with so high degree rates, when it becomes so hot, the fish begins to smell fast.
My fav is the sushi maki with salmon.
We have a pizzaria in our vilage which sells Pizza Mexicana.
That´s the best one they have.

I can understand this.
Here we have very muh Italian and Turkish restaurants, that´s kinda boring.
Mexican restaurants we have, too, but not so much.
And Mexican fastfood we don´t have. I find that sooo dumb.
I wish Mc Donald´s or Burger King would sell some Mexican stuff, but they only have sometimes some Burgers with jalapenos or something like that and this just for one or two weeks.

They have Taco Bell here which is Mexican fast food but its not anything like authentic Mexican food. It's like super Americanized Mexican food.
