The Crispy Potato Corn Dogs contain bonus ingredients folded into the batter, which means each bite is speckled with cubed potatoes. This is the kind of snack that delivers both flavor and texture.
"The response to our Frank's RedHot® Spicy Gummy Bears proved that consumers are ready and excited for swicy done right. With Cholula Chamoy, we're leaning even further into flavour mashups that feel authentic, craveable, and completely differentiated in the candy aisle."
Chef Aarón Sánchez stated, "It's actually something that's super inaccurate ... I think it's the destruction of humanity," referring to fried tortilla bowls and their lack of authenticity.
Venezuelan cuisine is a vibrant melting pot of its cultural influences, where Indigenous roots, African heritage, and Spanish flavors come together to create rich, satisfying dishes packed with character. Venezuela's food scene shares many similarities with those from other Latin American countries, but focuses more on building layers of sweet, savory, and tangy depth rather than turning up the heat with bold spices.
Oversized burritos are more of a north-of-the-border staple. In Mexico, even in northern regions where burritos originate, they're practical and proportionate. This is owed to the differences between traditional Mexican cuisine and its American-adapted counterpart.
Beans are high in protein, fiber, vitamins and minerals. Important attributes, but there is more to say about their surge in popularity. Many sources tout that they help your gut, your blood pressure and your cholesterol numbers. Throw frugality into the mix, and you have a winning ingredient. And, of course, they can be very delicious.
Historic center renewal has become a recurring strategy in Central American cities seeking to reassert the symbolic, economic, and functional relevance of their traditional cores. These processes often combine physical rehabilitation, institutional investment, and stricter control over public space. San Salvador offers a recent and instructive case, which allows for understanding of how interventions in inherited civic spaces balance infrastructure improvement with heritage conservation and social regulation.
There were many things that drew me to California. There was the sunshine, of course, as well as the endless coastline and vibrant culture. But what I remember being most blown away by was the food - in particular, the Mexican food. Much like Tex-Mex, Cal-Mex varies all over the state, and every area has reimagined the specialties in its own way. One of the best examples is San Francisco's Mission-style burrito - a ginormous, foil-wrapped mammoth filled with meat, rice, beans, and more.
Alemán, originally from Cabo San Lucas, has toured most of South America, bringing his Spanish-language rap to millions of fans. According to Spotify, Alemán is 2026's most popular Mexican rapper. Gera MX, originally started by freestyling on the streets of San Luis Potosí and then joined the collective, the Mexamafia. But it was his co-penned "Botella Tras Botella" that was the first Mexican single to break into the US Billboard Top 100.
The humble tortilla is an iconic food staple in Mexico. Everyone eats them, regardless of age or income. The ingredients for the tortilla I was frying in this photo have been fermented to include probiotics and prebiotics for gut health. My research focuses on developing such fermented nutraceuticals - nutritious products with pharmaceutical benefits - to help improve people's metabolic health and combat the malnutrition prevalent in some of Mexico's poorest communities.
Two key elements at the heart of Portuguese eating culture are couvert and pastry. A couvert, comprising bread, butter, pickled or garlic carrots, cheese and fish pate (often sardine), comes as standard at every Portuguese restaurant and family dinner table alike, as it does at our restaurant Luso, where our fish paste is an ode to this way of dining.

Desperately seeking cemita breade Cemitas Mane Mane opened a month ago at 2193 Mission St. near 18th Street, in the space formerly occupied by KO, a popular all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant that closed late last year. The restaurant, as its name suggests, specializes in "Cemitas," a torta-like dish from the state of Puebla, just south of Mexico City. The business also serves atol (a corn drink), avena (oatmeal), Mexican cocoa, tacos and tortas. Cemitas Mane Mane is open seven days a week from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m, and will soon be open for breakfast as well
I remember standing in rapt attention at the edge of the stovetop as my mom tossed fresh, thinly sliced beef into an oiled pan set on maximum heat. The steak hissed and leaped in a dramatic dance as flames licked the pan from underneath. My mom turned to me and said, "This is why it's called lomo saltado: the lomo is the steak, and watch how it's saltando - jumping."

The Mexican Pizza has been a Taco Bell fan favorite since it was first introduced to the menu back in 1985 - though it went by a different name back then, the Pizzazz Pizza. In its current form at the fast food chain, this dish consists of two layers of crisp flour tortillas with refried beans and seasoned ground beef sandwiched in the middle, and "Mexican Pizza Sauce," melted cheese, and diced tomatoes on top.
If you're starting the year with a healthy reset, then Japanese- Mexican restaurant Los Mochis has just the menu for you. Partnering with author and health and sustainability advocate Melissa Hemsley, the restaurants have given their classics a nourishing boost to support gut health, immunity and reduce inflammation. The partnership stems from both Melissa and Los Mochis working with The Felix Project, London's biggest food redistribution charity, to champion sustainability and prevent food waste.
One of the restaurant's owners, who was of Dominican heritage, requested that the menu showcase dishes reflecting her family's recipes, albeit with a modern twist. At the time, I was unfamiliar with Dominican cuisine, so I immersed myself in research by visiting local neighborhood establishments and seeking out the limited cookbooks available.
