En Estados Unidos las tortillas estan disponibles. Casi todas las ciudades tienen fábricas de tortillas. Los mejores son de maiz. Tambien se las preparen de harina de trigo. Si vas a algunos restaurantes preparen sus propias tortillas, y tienen más sabor.

Poli,

Descubrí que en México....

jitomate = tomato (eng)
tomate = tomatillo (eng)

Yo siempre creía que .....

tomate = tomato
tomatillo = tomatillo


Which brings me to a song....

You say tomato and I say tomatoe.....(needs music)

I heard the music in my head. Thanks for the info. Now I know that
tomates in Mexico are tomatillos. Then there's the question of ají which is the word most Latin Americans use for pimiento (-menos Mexico. Allí el aji es chile)

Yes. All you must have carer when you eat in the street. Because in the street there are a lot of virus inside of the food.

Please. I recommend you eat health and above all. You must eat less meat. And you must eat more fruits and vegetables in your diet.

Gracias Crotalito pero creo que el comer en la calle no es cosa de todos los días. Ya sabes lo que dice el dicho: Una vez al año no hace daño
