Is that nopales, at 9:15? I never had it served whole, like that; it's always cut into long strips. Some of the Mexican foods show here seem to be regional & local variants, that I'm not familiar with. The one that looks the most Mexican, & yet unfamiliar in some ways, is the "enchilota," which means "en-chile-ated-corn", in other words, corn which has been mixed, or saturated with chile. The sauce looks very much like mole. Perhaps, it a variant of mole, which i don't know, which includes corn.
@tube From the South West USA and along the Mississippi River to Mesoamerica to Western South America had similar foods during pre columbian times...Farming and cultivation was also found in central Canada during the growing season...What would be the state of the world if the food shown in the video was never created or influenced by our ancestors? I think there would still be mass starvation and famine... I don't know about "enchilota" it might be a Mexican food influenced by Meso Natives
@ImRussianJew The musical group is called Brule' (pronounced "brew-lay")...I don't know what the two songs are called...My friend bought the CD from Itunes and she gave me the songs but I can't remember what the songs are called...You can look them up on Youtube or Google >>> Native American recording artist Brule' <<<
This is a very informative video. Great job. Remember everyone, as the video restates, you only need to eat three things: corn, squash, and beans. Upon eating these three in combination, you'll feel satisfied and full, without the need for animal products. Just drink hibiscus juice, which contains more vitamin C than orange. You can also drink pulque but it's difficult to find in the U.S. or anywhere else but Mexihco.
@achcauhtliyaotl You need red meat---but not very much----to get vitamin E, which is vital, to prevent going crippled. I personally experienced going crippled that way. I did it deliberately, to cleanse myself of the toxins in meat. Once detoxified, I've since, stayed an almost-vegetarian. There's artificial vitamin E, but I'd rather eat natural & traditional.

@TheNativeHistorian Corn was first cultivated and engineered in Peru between 7 and 8 thousand years ago and it was pased to Central America to North America between 3 and 4 thousand years ago...Corn was engineered in South America, Central America and in North America, hundreds of species exist today...By the time of English arrival the corn the Natives had on the east coast was shared with the English colonies and this is the Corn we all eat today.
sucks that after what the natives did for the pilgrims..the pilgrims became greedy and started wiping out their civilization to establish their new colonies!!!
Our ancestors were very healthy people because of Indigenous agriculture and foods...We need to stick to our foods our ancestors ate...keep it traditional.
@TheNativeHistorian Very informative video thank you! A few other foods you should mention is the amarnth & chia seeds which were eaten by are ppl from mexico and the southwest. Both of these foods are very nutricious.
@chikawak Thanks for the info i'll put that in the info area...I may make another video based on indigenous foods and how they used permaculture and how they spread the seeds of apple trees and other fruit trees, they also used controlled fire burns to allow those trees to grow healthy...There are so much food that originated in the Americas, the list goes on and on...Indigenous people never over hunted and only took what they needed...Most of our foods is from a diet made of fruit and veggies.
People have to remember that Native People of the Americas are a very diverse group of People that are descendants of various Tribes and large Civilizations, some still live in a Traditional lifesyle...There are over a thousand languages...We Indigenous people share the same bloodline and have similarities in heritage, but our cultures have differences...Each region have their own names for their food...I use English and Spanish words for people to understand.
I wasn't refering to you when I said "idiots".People insult us by calling us "beaners","wetbacks",and "mexicans" yet they have the audacity to try to rob our heritage.I'm not having any of it.Btw I'm not Mexican but our diet and culture is very similar because it's originally indigenous.It's what we have in common.Our indigenous blood and heritage.
The three mightiest empires: empire of corn (Native American), empire of rice (Asian), and empire of wheat (Middle East). Everyone else is just a lucky inheritor. :P
I only eat the way my ancestors did. :) Tonight I'll eat squash soup with grape dumplings and for desert, a nice piece of Mohawk Milk Cake.
Wow! Our Ancestors have literally fed the world...I had no idea we made this much of a impact on the world with our agriculture and foods...This just show that we are a giving and sharing culture.
Asians can also claim maybe over 40% of the world's food supply because it contains alot of their ingredients, onions, garlic and among others.
As for Wheat, does anyone know where it originates and who cultivated it?
Now I want to eat corn....
