Hello, friends and passionate about Mexican gastronomy and culture! In this blog we are going to talk about a snack that needs no introduction, our beloved Takis!

Hello, friends and lovers of Mexican gastronomy and culture! In this post we are going to talk about the nopal cactus. Legend has it that the Mexica people (prehispanic community of central mexico) received orders from Huitzilopochtli, god of the sun and war, to make a journey until they discovered an eagle devouring a snake, which was sitting on a nopal cactus, that is where they founded the great Tenochtitlan; in what is now Mexico City.
