Tortillas, frijoles con arroz, pollo asado, tamales and various red
and green sauces are protected under Mexican copyright laws...:-)

When you enter Guatemala from Mexico there is a large sign at the
boarders on each side declaring what is what; In Guatemala it's called
Arroz con Frijoles and chuchitos, in Mexico it's frijoles con arroz and
tamales are called chuchitos. In Guatemala carnitas, tacos, chiles
rellenos, guacamole and good Gallo beer is called Guatemalan cuisine.
:-) The same thing occurs in El Salvador and Honduras. Oddly enough,
I've had some of the best mexican food in Guatemala and this includes
tortillas but there it was called ...you guessed it.... Guatemalan food.
Btw, it best to skip the local beers in El Salvador and Honduras imo.
