Your one-stop shop for all things Latin/Hispanic/Mexican
From the series Mexicans: How can anyone not like us? come Los Hijos de Trump (or the Sons of Trump) now performing in Mexico City’s Teatro Aldama.
Note: I’ve no idea what this is all about but rest assure I’ll investigate during an upcoming trip to wonderful Mexicou!

Move over Texican Whopper.
The folks at Carl’s Junior have come up with yet another Tex-Mex concoction, the Tex Mex Bacon Thickburger, featuring “fire-roasted peppers and onions, thick-cut bacon, Pepper Jack Cheese, and Santa Fe Sauce on a Fresh Baked Bun.”
But which aspect of this sandwich is more appealing to you? The Tex or Mex?
Well, let’s watch Team Mexico and Team U.S.A. try to settle this through a volleyball match on the border and with lots of butt slapping, shall we?

Saturday, September 19, 2015 marked the last show ever for Sábado Gigante, the world’s longest running television variety series in history.
As part of the emotional farewell Saturday night, Barack Obama (aka POTUS) and wife Michelle (aka FLOTUS) came on board to wish Don Francisco all the best, saying he will be missed.
Not to be outdone, this blogger (also known as a Mexican of the United States or MOTUS, would like to join FLOTUS and POTUS in wishing Mario all the best.
Seriously, what’s this blogger to do without you?
I don’t know nothing about the people behind the award-winning East Side Sushi. But I’m sure this movie will be a real eye-opener for most, especially Americans and other non-Mexicans who might think my people (i.e. The Mexicans) are only good at rolling two things: joints and tacos.
Check out the trailer for East Side Sushi, about a Mexican woman who really really wants to become a sushi chef. So much so that she even practices by rolling some sticky rice inside a chile poblano.
We now know many more things about Donald Trump (aka El Trumpo) than we ever needed to know. But one thing is still not clear. Does the billionaire like frijoles?
We might soon find out.
Dallas-based Pizza Patrón will be asking this question to Mr. Trump during his Dallas visit scheduled for Monday, Sept. 14, in which he will also be invited to pick up a Pizza Frijolera at a nearby restaurant.
Should Mr. Trump decide to comply, he’ll be in for a real treat:
According to Pizza Patrón officials, local residents are being asked to write a special message on the box that will contain El Trumpo’s warm and delicious bean-based pizza (Frijolera.)
And because this blogger can’t wait to see such a display of love & warmth, she is hereby joining the cause and asking El Trumpo to please comply and pay a visit to Pizza Patrón. Heck! They even accept pesos!
I couldn’t make this stuff up if I wanted.
In yet another sign of the circus that the political/entertainment “Hispanic” environment has become, a group of “prominent” Latino musicians (i.e. Emilio Estefan et al) will be getting together to record We’re all Mexican, which according to Billboard magazine:
…. is a celebration of Hispanics and our accomplishments.
I think this basically means the celebration of the accomplishments of Estefan et al but we’ll see.
The track, set to be released later in September, will also include reggaeton singer Wisin, Wyclef Jean and even a Spanish-American chef.
Will somebody please shoot me now?
Remember the “Latiñas” in Media New York Conference?
How about Spaiñ?
Well, it looks like the foolish trend of putting accents and eñes where they don’t belong is making its way to the media world.
According to NBC News, a group of “prominent Latinos” (is there any other kind?) has come together to found Ingeñuity a “content and experiential event firm that aims to connect clients with diverse audiences, with a focus on the Latino community.”
I’m not 100 percent sure, but I think they meant to say it’s a conteñt and experieñtial eveñt firm to coññect Latiño clieñts.
Ay, carambiña!
Mario Kreutzberger (aka Don Francisco) might have lost his job as Univision’s top entertainer, but that doesn’t mean we have to forget about him. ¡No, señor!
Thanks to New York City and it’s relentless Mayor, Bill de Blasio, we will soon be able to roam the Don Francisco Boulevard, a street that will be located nowhere else but in my neighborhood: 168th street and Broadway.
You know I’m going to have to move now, right?
On this this April 2015 segment, Univision News introduced Hispanics to María Diega Méndez, a lovely old lady who lives in Guanajuato, Mexico and happens to be very poor and very sick. The reason for all the media attention? She is the aunt of Columba [not Columbia, nor Colombia] Garnica, better known as Columba [not Columbia, nor Colombia] Bush.
The Univision segment basically makes one strong point: That should Columba (not Columbia, nor Columbia) become the U.S. First Lady, she should at least help pay for this poor’s woman’s medication.
I mean… after all, what are The Bushes going to do with the proceeds of their $75 Guaca Bowl?

Donald Trump (aka Mexico’s favorite piñata) this evening decided to kick Jorge Ramos out of a press conference, because Ramos wouldn’t sit down nor shut up, which basically means he’s not helping make America great again.
¡Pinche Ramos, pues!
Here’s a Vine from the great Gabe Ortiz
Whoa. My Vine of Trump booting Jorge Ramos from his press conference has almost 100,000 views: https://t.co/Ej9r3xIBsz

Not content with giving us the Mexican-themed, culturally relevant Tortillas Crisps, Pringles is at it again, this time with a chicken taco chip thing called — what else? — “Kickin’ Chicken Taco,” which according to Pringles itself are naturally and artificially flavored and sit on top of a cartoon-like taco truck.
I don’t know if the Kickin’ Chicken Taco Chips are “truly original” (such a claim has gone suspiciously missing) but I’m pretty sure they taste like a Kick in Your You-Know-What.
I think I’ll pass.

Miami-based Zubi advertising — which works for clients including Ford, Chase and American Airlines — has been making sure to operate under one simple motto: Erase Stereotypes.
So, in hopes of making the most out of the — still strong — Trump vs. Latinos brouhaha, Zubi has created a hilarious social campaign featuring — who else? — the King of Stereotyping My People (aka El Trumpo.)
VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: Despite my being Mexican and all, I did NOT steal these images. They were graciously offered to me by Zubi’s ECD Iván Calle. So, gracias for avoiding me a trip to the Copyright Infringement Offices.
In yet another sign that New York City is quickly becoming a subsidiary of Mexico, a paisano was spotted recently in the city subway proudly wearing a pair of Converse All Star Mexican Flag Ajúa Edition.
Want to be as cool as my people but Converse are not your thing? You will want to check out these Nike beauties and — of course — the Cinco de Mayo Adidas.
