Authentic Mexican Food vs Tex-Mex

 Tex-Mex is very good and I love to eat it. Tex-Mex is its own category of food. However, one should never confuse Tex-Mex with authentic Mexican cuisine. Mexican cuisine is so vast that it would be very difficult to cover every aspect of Mexican food. This is just a very small example of authentic Mexican cuisine. I do not actually compare this food to Tex-Mex in the video, as most of my viewers already know what a crunchy taco is. Many may know what a chimichanga is. What they don't know is that this dish doesn't exist in any part of Mexico that I have ever visited. It is mostly an American invention. Again, not a bad invention, just not authentic Mexican cuisine.
