you mean like taco's and enchiladas? as well as the myriad extremely tasty but insanely unhealthy Mexican foods?

How are tacos unhealthy? It is mainly just meat in a corn tortilla.
Possibly the way it's prepared in some areas, e.g. fried
There's typically relatively little meat and they are mostly carbs.
Have you been to Mexico? Or even SoCal?

I don't think I recall having eaten any of near thousand tacos, even those for $0.50, that had "relatively little meat" and "are mostly carbs" and most often heard the sentiment of not understanding how you were getting such a great deal from non-natives, and natives typically informing inquirers that that's just... how things are and have been.

Maybe deeper in South America? I don't know, haven't been and haven't done much research. But North America? I very much disagree with you and believe that most others would too.
