Mexican, but don’t enjoy Taco Bell

Eric Vazquez,
Baltimore, MD.

When I meet new people I’m always asked where I’m from. I get asked if I was born in Mexico, I get asked if I eat tacos and such. Not every Hispanic is from Mexico. At this point I’m fine with it but it still irritates me a little. I have never been in Mexico, I barely eat any traditional Mexican food, and I don’t wear a sombrero.
