The
Mexican culture has been through
rapid changes during 19th and 20th centuries. Looking at
the cities, we could see the familiarities of them with cities in neighboring
countries, such as Europe and United States. The people in the village,
however, still follow the old Mexican culture traditions more than those lived
in the city. Mexico was once colonized by Spanish; those bring some Spanish
customs to the land. The influences can be seen clearly from many aspects of
the Mexican culture and lifestyle, including the language they speak and the
food they eat.
Mexican Culture: The National Language
Mexican Culture: The Indigenous Cuisine
The
varied food and beverages in Mexican culture has some influences from European
and their own Indigenous cuisine. Some popular Mexican food includes
enchiladas, tacos, mole sauce, pozole, tamales, and atole. In Mexican culture,
the Yucatan food is well-known for its spiciness in meat and vegetable dishes.
Tequila is now considered important in Mexican culture as the national alcohol
beverage. Another important food from Mexico is chocolate, which was prized
highly by Aztec. To this day, this sweet ingredient remains important in most
Mexican dishes.
The
Mexican is really proud of their culture. Thus, when they move to other
countries such as United States, they try to preserve their culture wherever
they live, which ultimately brings Mexican American culture alive in America.
This makes their Mexican culture well-known all-over the world.
