Frances Macky: I know from! experience that the most common drink in Mexico is coffee. In Mexico we serve coffee all day long hot and/or cold. Mainly that is because we grow and grind our own coffee beans. Another drink that is real popular though and used for special occasions is a drink called atole. It is like flour and rice cooked with milk. It sounds weird but it is very good. Then there are all sorts of atole drinks. My favorite is the Huasteca atole which they call salsa atole which actually is cooked with blackberries! yummy! Black beans, pintos, salsa, and eggs are a major part of all dishes in Mexico. In fact in the region where I come from every home has a boiler of black beans on the stove everyday and it is hot all day long, that is where if company comes over a meal is hot and ready for them. A very popular dish is aroz con pollo or nopales con chili. But you never can forget that Tamales are always number one on a list when it comes to special occasions and popularity....Show more

Lindsey Zanardi: very good question

Ruby Martis: LMAO! no they do not drink the blood of a cow at least I've never heard of that. Life there is very simple yet tiring. Because it is a developing country,street vendors and things of that nature are still considered credible jobs. This does not mean th! at there are indians running around the place, but it is not as developed as the US or Europe. Lately, the country has been being run by drug lords which has made life for the civilians hard. One thing I can say is that the country loves its culture and supports it to the fullest extent. Family, Food, Hard Work are some of the main attributes that describe an average mexican's ideas haha. I guess there's alot more to explain but you won't know what its like till you visit it. Ask your bf to take you there sometimes. ps food such as Posole and menudo does involve eating cow meat but like I said I've never eaten that. I'll probably be there on vacation again. I recommend Merida, Yucatan. great place...Show more
