Why does Mexican food seem almost habit forming?
Studies have indicated that the ingestion of chiles releases endorphins in the brain. Endorphins are chemical compounds designed to act much as does any pain killer such as morphine. So, when the heat in your mouth signals your brain that something painful may be occurring, it reacts by producing a small amount of a very potent drug-like substance that creates an overall feeling of pleasure. ...

What's with the Mexican Food fascination?
Well, if you mean the part about the burrito, I should just say that it is perhaps a question better posed to Josh than to myself. I had nothing to do with it. Let me just say that it is probably best to wish Josh a Happy Cinqo de Maio and then beat a hasty retreat

Why do servers ask red or green when ordering New Mexican food?
In 1996 the New Mexico State Legislature passed a House Joint Memorial declaring "Red or Green? " as the official state question. This refers to the question always asked whether one prefers red or green chile when ordering New Mexico cuisine. This measure was passed to signify the importance that the chile industry has on the economy of the state. In 2000 New Mexico produced 99,000 tons of chile valued at nearly 49 million dollars making it the number one cash crop in terms of sales in the state.

Isn't Mexican Food all hot stuff?
No, this is a common misconception. We do use some Chillies in certain dishes, but generally we temper our menu to suit the majority of tastes thus tend to go lightly. Also, because we cook to order, if you let us know when ordering, we simply will leave out the spicy ingredient. We also have a wide variety of Tex-Mex entrees and mains that are mild yet very tasty.

Where I’m from good mexican food is hard to come by, can you give me any tips on enjoying a burrito in Santa Barbara?
First, let us say we are deeply sorry you live in an area with subpar mexican food. Now is the time to be adventurous. Try out some lesser known places, away from high traffic areas. If you walk in the restaurant and can’t read the menu, don’t walk out, just go up to the counter and say, “Carne Asada Burrito” (steak) or “Carnitas Burrito” (marinated pork).

My husband and I love Mexican food. We usually drink margaritas or beer but we’ve noticed that more Mexican food restaurants are offering wine. Does wine really go with Mexican food?
Yes, it can, quite well. In fact, if you really want to raise a few eyebrows, try champagne with Mexican food! In general, fruity red wines like Zinfandels and Shiraz work well—Bordeaux style blends and wines with a lot of tannins, not so much. I also like pairing Sauvignon Blancs and Pinot Grigios with Mexican food. Experiment and let me know what you think!

I love hot and spicy Mexican food, even though it tends to give me heart burn. Are hot and spicy foods bad to eat and can they actually damage my stomach?
The "hot" in hot, spicy Mexican food comes from capsicum peppers, better known as chili or red peppers, which have been eaten in large quantities by many cultures for at least 400 years. Along with being highly desired for their pungent, hot quality, they are rich in vitamins A and C. And, as many of us have learned the hard way, they can set your mouth on fire. The ingredient in the peppers that causes the "burning sensation" is the alkaloid capsaicin. This can be fairly powerful stuff. ...
