You can't be in Mexico and not celebrate the Day of the Dead, you must have at least one friend who can teach you what is done, you must definitely live that experiencie.

Corn

Corn is the mainstay of the mexicans diet, you should know that we don't only eat tortillas corn can be used in many recipes, so don't worry
