Why do Mexicans put chili in everything?

Answer 1

Chili peppers are native to Central America, Mexico, and parts of South America. They were brought to Europe by Spanish explorers. Once spread throughout the world, they use chili peppers to flavor beans, soups, meat, stews, sauces, and countless other dishes. In Mexico, people eat chili peppers as a snack, in Hot Chocolate, with cheese, in jams, on sandwiches, and as an ingredient in a variety of dishes. One of the favorite ways to eat chili peppers is the chilaquiles, a stuffed pepper dish made of eggs, pork, cheese, and diced chili peppers.
