something sufficiently un-esoteric that it gets four votes within seconds! wow.

@Felthry Yeah this time we actually know what you're talking about! x3

@IceWolf kinda just waiting for someone to not know what a chile relleno is, or wonder why it's tamal and not tamale

@Felthry I have to admit we don't know what a chile relleno is, but figured it was some kind of Mexican food given context. (:

@IceWolf it's a stuffed pepper! usually a... poblano, I think? Stuffed with meat and rice and tomatoes and stuff

we're not a fan, but they're quite popular

@Felthry In fairness it's also something easy to have a strong feeling about.

@Felthry @Austin_Dern We're honestly not too huge fans of whatever spices most (American) Mexican restaurants use! I'm not sure what it is, but whatever it is our mom doesn't use it in her home cooking.

@IceWolf @Austin_Dern Huh! Those spices are usually mostly chilis, onions, and frequently bay; nothing too out there.

For some reason the taco seasoning you buy at the grocery store has a lot of cumin in it, but cumin is not used in actual mexican cooking
