I saw Chihuahua on the menu in Mexico. Is that the dog meat or something else?

Question

I went to a restaurant in Puerto Vallarta across the street from the Sheraton, and the natural food place had chihuahua on the menu.

Answer 1

You could have seen something prepared Chihuahua style (the way it is prepared in the state of Chihuahua, Mexico) or it could have been Chihuahua cheese, which is very popular and similar to monterrey jack.

Answer 2

It is cheese, why would you want to ruffle feathers?

Answer 3

chihuahua its also a state in Mexico, i guess that was about traditional food fro me chihuahua

Answer 4

Its a state in Mexico and no, we don't eat our pets. Refers to the style of cooking.

Answer 5

Chihuahua is a place in Mexico.  That's what the dog is named after.  I'd imagine what you saw was something prepared in the style of that place.  Especially at a natural foods store.

Answer 6

Answer 8

It's a state in Mexico, the one immediately to the south of El Paso, Texas. The desert that city is in plus the southern parts of New Mexico is called the Chihuahuan Desert.

Answer 9

I 've been to Puerta Vallarta several times, and they certainly would not serve that in the restaurants there.  I think what you saw was a type of popular Mexican cheese.
