Positive cross cultural mixing


I have been thinking of starting this new thread for awhile and with Canada Day coming up, it made me reflect on how I have canadianized some mexican traditions and mexicanized some canuck traditions.

Our family is a great result of cultural mixing and matching...which has created some unique ideas and characters. We have all been enriched by each others culture.

For example...gypsies brought me a big bag of Earl Grey Tea which is a canadian standby I had missed. So here I sit with my mexican version of this canadian tea...in the big san ignacio grocery store, I found a bottle of Cointreau for 70 pesos and tried a shot of it in my tea...and will wonders never cease....it is fantastic...a natural duo!!!

How about others share some examples of cross culture favorites....like peanut butter and banana burritos...etc...

Bob,
That should be six ounces of frozen orange juice concentrate.

OK I got one and this is an American and Mexicano mix story-

One morning our daughter told us about a nightmare she had the night before. She says a monster was chasing her and she ran and ran then fell down but right before the monster got her, dad hacked it up with a machete.

I told her that I used to have the exact same kind of dreams and the monster would chase me down a hill through a forest and I would stay just ahead of it but then fall down and right before the monster got me my dad would come out of nowhere and shoot it with a rifle.

kind of funny those kinds of differences.

We go to Michoacan for tacos de carnitas, buy a half kilo to eat there, and bring any leftover meat home so I can make a Piggy Park Barbecue sandwich. People in SC like mustard bbq sauce, kind of sweet. We also like cole slaw on our bbq sandwiches...on a sesame seed bimbo bun. yummmmmmm

Heaping tablespoon of malt and a raw egg. Better if you use fresh squeezed OJ. Eliminate the water and use crushed ice.

Add Tequila and Damiana and it becomes a breakfast of champions. ;D
