  1. grease


  2. What kind of Mexican food?  Taco Bell doesn't count as Mexican food.  ;)

    However all kidding aside, there are some people that cannot tolerate the spices in the food and a lot of times there are certain vegetables that are blended with the sauces that can cause you to get the runs.  For example; I know of some people who blend green pepper (bell pepper) and celery with the tomato and spices for rice dishes.

  3. Probably because it is mostly fried, refried, or contains beans.

  4. This is not health central. Go to another site.Please...

  5. your body isnt used to digesting the different ingredients

  6. doesn't happen to me

  7. Some people are unused to eating different foods. i know that when i eat any kind of mexican food i don't get the runs

  8. HEY man im mexican whats wrong with our food huh???

    na j/k its the spices and other ingredients

  9. usually because your body isnt very used to it. if you ate it everyday, it wouldnt give you the runs.

    if it still does, then i would suggest a trip to the doctor :)

    haha

  10. Eat taco bell and find out.

  11. I don't know what exactly you are eating, but I am going with because it is either fried or has lard in it.  So the high fat content +your stomach= diarrhea

  12. its all about your metabolism

  13. it doesn't to all people.  It doesn't do that to me.  I love it!

  14. It's probably the sour cream that they load on the entree.

  15. b/c its mostly spicy

  16. Probably because you are eating crappy, inauthentic food. Anything with a lot of cheese gobbed over it is "Tex-Mex," not real Mexican.  A lot of authentic Mexican food is quite healthy, with a lot of use of fresh ingredients and veggies.  The deep-fried, sauced up concoctions you find in the U.S. are corruptions of true Mexican food.  Try to find a good-quality Mexican restaurant, stay away from the salsas in case you are too sensitive to chiles, and you should not get sick!

  17. cause they add spices (eg curry/chilli)

    OR

    there country is just full of S*H*I*T!

    LOL

  18. no, only chinese.

    the only problem w/ mexican is that the portions can kill
