This is a garrafón in Mexico.

Yes, it's one Garrafon in Mexico.

There are other dishes in Mexico the Cochinita Pibil, the Tinga, and the Taquitos al pastor.

In Mexico a garrafa is smaller than a garrafón. The 19 liter/5 gallon bottles of water are garrafones and for example a 1 gallon jug of milk is a garrafa de leche or for example a 4 liter jug of oil would also be a garrafa.

"Peas" son guisantes. Las judías verdes son los frijoles con vaina cuando son más jóvenes. Se hacen hervidas y es una verdura. A mí es la verdura que más me gusta (bueno, las alcachofas también me encantan :))

Impersonal "se" is always conjugated in third person singular.

Well, you changed my original sentence to "se usan" and put in parentheses that it could also be "se les usa". Why is one "usan" and the other "usa"? I thought that the impersonal "se" always went with a singular verb conjugation. ?? :thinking:

A los frijoles todavia en vaina pero que estan maduros, en verano, le llamamos poroto granados, con eso hacemos un plato de porotos granados. Hay que desvainarlos primero. :-)
