    Tex-Mex is “actual” Mexican food, the cuisine formed from the Tejanos and is older than either Texas or Mexico. Mexico is a big place with lots of regional variation. Most Mexican food that Americans are familiar with is from or inspired by stuff near the border (which makes sense) with a mix from all over the country like mole, birria, and tequila.

      Preach, Soggy. I was fortunate I had a good friend who was patient and taught me this shit. The internet is usually not that kind, but fuck being unkind.
