The most accessible "good" stuff is apparently on par with Chipotle. I had an amazing mole poblano once at a restaurant run by actual Mexican people but that restaurant is long since gone. Never found anything like it again.

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.

We basically only get Tex-Mex food here. I spent a few months in Mexico last year (2022) and was surprised at just how different everything was. For example, we don't have corn tortillas at all (you can sometimes find them, but they're specialty products aimed at coeliacs). There aren't many actual authentic Mexican restaurants around, there's a handful of Taco Bell outlets (have never eaten there either here or in the US so I can't tell you how it compares), and there's an upmarket chain called Guzman y Gomez that's kinda similar to Chipotle.

But yeah the average Australian will equate "Mexican" with the Old El Paso stuff in the post you quoted.

Hard corn taco shell with mince cooked in taco seasoning (use half the packet, it's too much!), shredded cheddar cheese, three pieces of tomato, some shredded lettuce and if you're feeling brave a dollop of sour cream and mild salsa.

There's a pretty decent taqueria in my suburb, but there's a restaurant in Glebe which I found to be pretty drat good. I ordered a chicken mole dish, the owner came and had a chat cos it was his favourite and no one orders it, they just go with what they know. Nice guy, good food!

We have a good selection although not to the level of what you'd find in say California.

There's some Taco Bells around but they're really not that popular. Typically people go for Guzman Y Gomez or Zambreros (best comparison would be Chipotle in the US).

There are quite a few legit places run by Mexicans but they're typically one off restaurants not chains.

I'd say it's a pretty even split between corn and flour tortillas in most supermarkets.

There is probably a big overlap of people who use packet taco seasoning and people who went full bore for covid being nothing who have now lost all sense of taste.

Trippy taco for veg stuff as well and it’s either amazing or total dogshit, no in between, depending on what substances the backpackers in the kitchen are on at the time.
