RE: Why Mexico Doesn't Make Sense 😂😂😂
I personally think of Mexican food as healthier (compared to the US) because the fruits & veggies are less likely to be genetically modified, contaminated with glyphosates or irradiated. Less likely to find HFCS in the sodas, too. Those things are important to me and I’m a VERY long way from being a health nut.

I couldn't agree with you more on that! And interestingly, I (Maddie) used to have dozens and dozens of food allergies and sensitivities in the US. Within a few weeks of being in Mexico, I was able to reintroduce all but a few of them back into my diet with no problems. I had suspicions that the heavily-processed, chemical-filled, and genetically-modified food in the US might have something to do with my health problems, but it seems very clearly yes now that we're here in MX.
Someone even mentioned the other day how Coca-cola in Mexico doesn't have high-fructose corn syrup and other artificial ingredients like in the US... we were shocked that it's true! Why people in the US have to suffer the wrath of greedy food companies will never be clear to me.
Anyways... rant over! Haha. Thanks for watching our video and leaving a great comment. :)

In the name of “fighting obesity” the UK just unleashed a “sugar tax” on the British soda industry. Most (possibly all) own-label colas switched to using artificial sweeteners to avoid it (the nasty kind that make HFCS look good). I think Coke & Pepsi might be the only brands that opted to stick with sugar. I used to pay 42p for a 2 litre bottle of own-label cola. If I want to avoid colas with chemical sweeteners the cheapest option I have locally is £1.86, a 442% price hike! In Mexico I rarely drink soda apart from the occasional Fresca or Yoli so my Mexican diet is definitely better!
