It is a custom inherited from the ancient Mesoamerican peoples that lived in Mexico six thousand years ago. These cultures "domesticated" the chili and used it to spice-up their foods, which were composed of ingredients such as maize, beans and squash mixed with turkey, shrimp or fish meats. The Aztec and Maya civilizations continued with the tradition, and even when Spain conquered Mexico in the 16th century, the custom never faded away.
