I'm waiting for the "newsletter" that says since Mexico has fewer cases than the US, eat foods with garlic, cumin, and chilis among other things

Maybe it's the spices, not so sure about the garlic. -- nm - . Mar 31, 21:36 1
- Garlic is a natural antibiotic - Trisha Mar 31, 22:31
If everyone increased their garlic and onions intake by 200% it would help with social distancing. -- nm - Max Mar 31, 20:14 2
- I volunteer as tribute! -- nm - znufrii Mar 31, 21:06
- You're not wrong. -- nm - crash davis Mar 31, 20:29
mmm....garlic... -- nm - znufrii Mar 31, 20:11
*stamps APPROVED* -- nm - Reagen Mar 31, 20:10 11
- You don’t even like cilantro!!! -- nm - JackDawson Mar 31, 20:10 10
  - Devil's weed! But I like every other spice in that mix - Reagen Mar 31, 20:12 9
    - Definitely lime. I like cilantro but Trish has that gene where cilantro tastes like soap. So I usually use flat leaf parsley. -- nm - crash davis Mar 31, 20:15
    - I have been eating homemade pho every other night for almost a month. Lime and Cilantro!! Yumm -- nm - Bacon Mar 31, 20:13 7
      - good pho is a major hole in the restaurant scene here, I miss it - Reagen Mar 31, 20:15 6
        
        A pho place opened up here recently and it's pretty good, but I don't like pho itself. - Beryllium Mar 31, 20:22 1
        
        "recently" = 7 to 8 months ago. I don't know if they'll survive the slowdown, but they do takeout and delivery, so maybe. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 31, 20:38
        
        We have a pretty good pho and thai place we go to - znufrii Mar 31, 20:19
        
        We had an explosion on pho places pop up in the last 5 years. Dude, I found a way to make it restaurant quality. I plan on posting my recipe soon -- nm - Bacon Mar 31, 20:18 2
        
        I mean, I've got time to make soup. -- nm - Reagen Mar 31, 20:21 1
        
        I had many bad attempts. The broth was the hardest thing to recreate without spending 2 days making it -- nm - Bacon Mar 31, 21:02
Are you spying on me? I was just discussing whether Mexican food is garlicky— it definitely is in the US but not so much in Mexico (I think) -- nm - JackDawson Mar 31, 20:10 7
- There's garlic in everything as one of several basic flavours, but I don't think of Mexican food as garlicky. - Roger More Mar 31, 20:20
- varies by region, perhaps? Pati Jinich uses a bit on her show. The food I get here uses it but it might be Hispanics adapting to Anglo tastes? -- nm - crash davis Mar 31, 20:12 5
  - The stereotype is that Anglo people don't like garlic though -- nm - Roger More Mar 31, 20:18 3
    - That has to be old or an eastern thing, you should have seen the lines for garlic fries at Mariners games. -- nm - crash davis Mar 31, 20:20 2
      - It's definitely an English thing. But it's also a "this mayonnaise make my Wonder bread spicy" thing. -- nm - Roger More Mar 31, 20:26 1
        
        that made me giggle, thanks! -- nm - crash davis Mar 31, 20:27
  - Maritimers are the only people on Earth to get a hold of Lebanese food and say, "Hey, don't be so stingy with the garlic now." -- nm - Reagen Mar 31, 20:16
