The Real Aztec Indian Foods That Have Been Sold As Mexican Dishes Over The Decades

Seriously! I’ve lived my life always under the thought that Tacos were a spanish food that was brought over to mexico from spain or developed in mexico afterward. Yeah!, reality just hit me when I found out Tacos were an “Aztec Indian (Nahuati)” food and the spanish were being given false credit by society for inventing this and other food types.
