text: Latin American countries are not "basically Mexico."  I went to Argentina to visit for three weeks, where the population is around 80% white/European and some of the most common foods are steak, pasta, and pizza. When I got back, I can't tell you how many American people asked me, "Was it weird being the only white person there?" or saying, "Bet you got tired of eating all those tacos and burritos! lol"
