There are a lot of Mexican neighborhoods with a lot of authentic Mexican food in America.
Dont get me wrong, there is a lot of Americanized Mexican food. But I’d bet for every Qdoba/El Rancho, there is a local family Mexican restaurant with an old guy watching Mexican soap operas.
Spent a lot of time exploring Iowa?
I’d imagine there is less of everything in general, but ranch/farmland with seasonal employment doesn’t seem like it’d be lacking Mexican culture
