Arellano's fascinating narrative combines history, cultural criticism, food writing, personal anecdotes, and Jesus on a tortilla. In seemingly every decade for over a century, America has tried new culinary trends from south of the border, loved them, and demanded the next big thing. As a result, Mexican food dominates American palates to the tune of billions of dollars in sales per year, from canned refried beans to tortilla wraps and ballpark nachos. It's a little-known history, one that's crept up on this country and left us better for it.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGustavo Arellano's \u003ci\u003e¡Ask a Mexican! \u003c\/i\u003ecolumn has a circulation of more than two million in thirty-eight markets (and counting).
