Uhhhh, A-1??? Have you BEEN to Mexico recently? No, not a nice hotel in a
big city where tourists can get all kinds of international foods, but where
the majority of the Mexican people live, work and eat. They shop in
wonderful outdoor markets and buy farm fresh produce and cheap, but useful
items...... like pig's heads. In my experience there I can't say that I have
seen a lot of modern refrigerators and stoves outside of hotels, restaurants
and the homes of the more affluent. As a matter of fact, the best Mexican
food I've had the pleasure and great joy of consuming have come from
outdoor, open fires and street vendors. I am personally thankful that the
majority of Mexico still shops and cooks that way. But, if you prefer the
big hotels and such, that's your choice.

I to remember when I used a slide rule instead of a calculator, and a
computer was the size of a room. Progress has speeded up quicker and
quicker every year since the 1930s. Research is now being conducted on
Bio-Computers to be implanted directly into your brain and electric
motors
the size of a molecule. That is happening right NOW, not in the future.
Don't you think it should and would be expected that the majority of the
people had refrigerators in a modern civilized country like Mexico.
I didn't say there weren't tribes in backward countries existing without
electricity. I was referring to Mexico and It' millions of modern day type
of living, you know Wal-Mart, Pizza Hut, McDonalds and many more not
mentioned. I think you will find most Mexican people have refrigeration
and
modern stoves. I would certainly think the chefs of Mexico does. What he
is
describing, is what I would expect around the turn of the last century,
where most got around on donkeys or by horse. Where people didn't think
anything about brushing the blow flies away and buying meat from a butcher
doing business in an open air market. I think there has been some progress
since those days, or I hope so, with meat and vegetable exportation to
other countries.
I think it was an interesting post about how Mexican people lived in the
past, but not for modern day Mexico,
