Tamales could be pre-made ahead of time and packed, to be warmed as needed. They were steamed, grilled on the comal (grill) over the fire, or put directly on top of the coals to warm, or they were eaten cold. While searching the web I found no record of which culture actually created the tamale but believe that the snowball effect where one tribe or culture started and the others soon followed after and so on and so on.…

There is a need for policies to be implemented that will protect the rights of these workers. Let’s not mention how many labor laws are being broken concerning a workers rights but let’s point out the work…
Tortillas made by hand thrown over the pan, as the heat puff up the tortillas, it is thrown on this red sauce that looks like lava. Then, it is pulled out from the sauce and thrown on to the plate ready for the chopped up cabbage, the onion with oregano, and Mexican cheese.

It’s a common misconception that Cinco de Mayo (The fifth of May in Spanish) is a celebration of Mexico’s independence. However, this is not the case - the celebration started over fifty years after Mexico’s independence. Mexico’s Independence day is celebrated in the sixteenth of September.

Peculiarly enough, the celebration takes place much more often in the United…
