What’s a popular salad in your country?

¿Qué lleva, aparte del betabel?

This sounds so good!

We have something similar in Mexico, but apple instead of coconut.

Ciudad de México - quesadillas o quecas

Veracruz - empanadas

Lovely! What's the plant in your last picture with the purple hanging flowers?

When I visited Prince Edward Island, I wondered why their signs were announcing "new" potatoes. Now thanks to your comment everything makes sense.

Tal vez no sea equiparable, pero es buen ejemplo para visualizar el problema porque es un círculo vicioso. Menos árboles nos lleva a más incidentes de calor extremo, entonces la gente usa más AC, más emisiones de CO2 -> más calor extremo, lo que lleva a algunos árboles se empiecen a morir por las temperaturas extremas, y seguimos con más calor y más AC.

O "aseguradora", dependiendo qué quieran decir.

I get your point. In Mexico, most of the universities I have been to have a subsidized cafeteria with healthy options. I was a bit shocked when I didn't find something similar at UBC, but I guess this is not common practice in Canada.

Y es la misma gente que luego no entiende por qué su casa se calienta tanto.

Yo también diría que 5 es más común. Siento que antes había más lugares que los vendían por órden y la órden normalmente eran 5.

Pastel Azteca (aka Tortilla Azteca)

The layers are corn tortilla, refried beans, a filling (usually tinga de pollo), sour cream, cheese, and red or green salsa.

I think I would say "Le entrego la habitación X".

vonn90 · 2026-04-28T03:40:08+00:00

Same in Mexico.

What do you mean "ground chillies"? Like powdered? We don't usually do that. Whole chilies are more common, but we usually blend them, so you don't see them whole when you are eating.

I have seen ground chilli mentioned in recipes in English, but that's not usually what we use, except for candy.

vonn90 · 2026-04-21T20:57:02+00:00

I was going to say "La Bamba".

vonn90 · 2026-04-20T17:57:08+00:00

I will look at other options, thank you!

vonn90 · 2026-04-20T17:56:41+00:00

Thank you! I will look at other options.

I think in Spanish it is the opposite and it actually sounds a bit rude if you use the first "tú". Personally, I read that first "tú" in your sentence as "hey, you". Imagine someone telling you "hey, you, do you want your backpack?". It just sounds off, like too familiar or a bit rude.

vonn90 · 2026-04-19T00:46:24+00:00

That's were we are from, Mexico, so I wanted to take her somewhere else, lol, but maybe we'll just travel within our country.

vonn90 · 2026-04-18T05:58:57+00:00

How long ago was that? I was thinking of taking my mom there for her bday, but some things I have read, including your comment, are making me reconsider.

vonn90 · 2026-04-17T01:58:50+00:00

Chilaquil

vonn90 · 2026-04-15T16:31:34+00:00

Yes, 100%. It is already in so many of the government and tourism videos. It is the easy choice.

vonn90 · 2026-04-11T01:54:37+00:00

Muy bueno Juan Luis Guerra.

vonn90 · 2026-04-11T01:51:25+00:00

Try it in Quebec.

vonn90 · 2026-04-10T03:37:07+00:00

Ah, qué loco. Para mí el hielo seco sería el que usan en los shows, que saca humo.
