Differences between customs around meals for u.s. and mexico?

Question

I am trying to help my Boss's grandaughter with her report???

Answer 1

Mexican here..... never really did the whole family sit down toegether for a meal thing,, i mean we do it now and then but it's not the norm. What i noticed is the time of the meals is different. (well for my family it is). Like breakfest is what? around 8-10 for americans and for my family it is around 12.

Lunch is arond 5 and we usually don't eat dinner. W.E.

Answer 2

One main difference in customs is Mexicans still believe in sitting down as a family and eatting meals.

Answer 3

REALLY , LISTEN TO THE LUNATIC !

i mean yes family virtue's are still fairly solid in mexico !

but for the simple report would be , such as food ?

tortillas in most would sub for bread's here !

a soup in mexico is so hardy it counts as the main dish !

where here its one course !

meats are all fairly identical cept for the chile which we use ketchup ?  

we go to the store for milk  !

lots of folk in mexico still go for milk at the barn ( theirs or the neighbors ) !!

and usually the parent helps their offspring and not the secretary !

hope this helps !!!

Answer 4

tortillas instead of bread

eat huge meals

pile food on their plate a mile high(my dad, a mexican)
