A sandwich is significantly harder to make because you actually have to balance and stack things properly so it holds together.

you're not supposed balance the pickles on edge you retard

For real, though, the reason people gush over 3rd-world food is because they didn't have near-universal fridges and freezers until recently. Low-tier food in the USA is pretty much all frozen, canned, or processed to be shelf-stable. Think gas station hot dogs, McDonald's, that sort of thing. Even mid-tier can be absolute shit, like Carabba's and Olive Garden serving serving week-old frozen chicken and box pasta, or Applebee's end-to-end disgusting menu.

By contrast, a street taco in Mexico still has a fresh tortilla and fresh meat that was cooked today. (Might be cat, but still.) A fresh, cheap cut of beef and a fresh, simple flour-and-water tortilla are miles better than a bun that's been sitting in a bag for five days and freezer-burned ground beef.

It's not so much that we "can't" do that, it's that we got culturally used to everything being ultra-processed in the postwar era. Which, ironically, most Mexican restaurants here use stale, bagged tortillas because Americans think it's okay to pay $25 for a meal with stale bread.

God he's disgusting. His face makes me so angry. Every single thumbnail I've seen of him captures a faggy expression. And he still won't be banned from Twitch for more than a couple days (if any action is taken at all) because Hasan is one of the Good Guys ™️ and they are beyond reproach.

Good Guys™ who use animals as props and shock their dogs to pin them to a cot! Good Guys™ who bitch about how spoiled they are for it! Good Guys™ who lie about it all!

Good Guys™!

Is there a specific reason libs think tacos and burritos are magic food that specifically require the presence of brown people voodoo wisdom to prepare?

I probably have Mexican twice a week because it's so fucking easy to make and reasonably healthy if you use fresh ingredients.

You know how class is something you either innately understand, or you just don't have it? Normally that sentiment is found in high society, reserved for those things us peasants simply cannot understand. Well, the left switched it from "high society" to "authentically exotic". Where it used to be that classy people had intellectual tastes, now it's that immigrants and foreigners have this innate understanding of the world that us dumb white folk will never understand. Where it used to be that only the most authentic wine and dining came from artisans in Europe, with our primitive American facsimiles being unable to compete, now it's poor third world street vendors who are the artisans, with the rich white person variants being the poor facsimiles. Except the scorn also applies moreso to middle class and poor whites, because these people are still rich snobs.

I can't stress to you just how much this warped notion of class is the lynchpin of the progressive worldview. That's how they can swallow any hypocrisy- if you tell them they're being unfair, they just chuckle and shake their heads, like you just said that you don't think there's a difference between Chateau Prétentieuxse 84 and 85. I mean, obviously this would all just make sense if you had class/cultural empathy, you cringe white person.

People from California don't actually live with minorities they visit them at will. They think all Hispanic food is Mexican. They litterally had their mind blown when I asked them if they've ever had Colombian or Cuban food. To them all the south america browns are the taco eaters.
