It can be healthy and unhealthy. Go for the grilled stuff for healthier and go fried for less healthy. It's also really easy to go overboard on carbs with all the corn and flour tortillas and rice. Good variety of vegetables though. All those peppers, tomatoes, onions, and avocados have gotta be good for you.

Corn tortillas using nixtamallized corn are much healthier than flour tortillas because they din't contain fat. The grilled meats, braises and seafoods are fine. Beans are fantastic. They use a lot of vegetables as well. It's inly when you get to all the americanized fried shit that it starts getting unhealthy. Fucking americans even fry the corn tortillas for god's sake. As long as you don't confuse "mexican" food for the abominations produced by the 12th fattest country you'll be fine.

Life expectancy is trash a worthless gamble on everloving life

Does anyone really want to be 117 years old
Live 50 years with zero fucking and to enjoy a nice quality of life you need to have nearly zero enjoyment of life when your still under 50
Honestly a shit tradeoff some will say blah blah blah but no-one is promised tomorrow or next week much less 20 or 40 years from now
Its such a shit bet to live over a century with fine health if you live that long by not having an enjoyable life to start .... fuck not knowing how good life is ever only to last living for 500 boring shit years
Its like going to heaven when all your friends are in hell
shit tradeoff garbage gamble yet fools die to defend nonsense

Tell me about the Spic.
Why does he love the taco so much?
If I fry that off, will you die?
It would be extremely painful.
You are a big Pedro.

The thing is, nutrient dense foods can be just as satisfying, if not more so. You eat a piece of fruit on a hot day and you get the potassium you crave. Have a micronutrient-free soda and you'll still be thirsty. You can guzzle corn syrup and oil and spend the last 50 years of your life with a potbelly that causes you back pain every day, or you could eat a little more strategically.

There are real Mexican dishes (in actual Mexico) that are healthy.

You will not find them in Mexican restaurants, regardless of how "authentic" they claim to be.

Tortillas are ridiculously high in calories
They stick lard in just about everything
All the food gets salted up, probably 50% of the dish is salt

It's unhealthy food that just looks like it might potentially be healthy.

Real Mexicans are even fatter than real Americans though, so an authentic Mexican diet is pretty fucking unhealthy

I also recommend Sopa de Macaco. Its the specialist dish of the entire south America. They all eat it practically daily, its a staple food. Basically, like bread is to us whites. Remember to tell the chef that it was uma delicia.

As a mexican I can say yes it is pretty unhealthy part of the reason I was so fat back in the day, thankfully I managed to get in control of my weight.
