Just as different regions have different cultures, Mexico also has its own corn culture. In Mexico, corn is not only a common staple food, but also its extra industrial chain has been developed. Next, I will show you the important position of corn in Mexico.

Mexico has brought the cultivation and processing technology of corn to the extreme.

Between 3000 and 4000 years ago, corn began to take root in the land of ancient Indians and America. After thousands of years of development, Mexicans' planting technology of corn can be said to have reached the point of perfection. In addition to planting the most traditional corn, they first began to cultivate and popularize colored corn, and colored rainbows began to graft on corn. When you visit a supermarket in Mexico, you can see all kinds of things on any shelf.

Corn is a staple food for Mexicans and a favorite snack for everyone.

The main food of Mexicans at state banquets is corn. Besides the most common boiled corn in China, they also invented many other corn cooking methods. For example, roast corn in a pot, or stir-fry it with salad, onion and pepper, wrap zongzi for a while, or use corn as an auxiliary material of fish soup. Corn exists in all aspects of Mexican food. The State Council is basically made of corn, such as bread, ice cream, biscuits or drinks, which is an eye-opener for those who have tried it.

Mexicans divide solar terms according to the planting situation of corn.

The earliest people living in Mexico were the ancient Mayans, who are now recognized as the smartest people in history. At that time, this race divided solar terms by corn planting and the position of the sun in the sky. At that time they divided the year into nine solar terms. For example, the mature season in Japan is called? Mature? .

Corn is also used in religions and celebrations in Mexico.

In China, Levin and cattle are usually used as animal husbandry to offer sacrifices to the gods, hoping for good weather in the coming year. In Mexico, these things are used to worship the corn god, and the time usually occurs at the moment when the fresh corn is harvested. The corn god is equivalent to the land god in China. Even planting corn in modern Mexican society can be said to be the focus of many agriculture. Every year, a large area of land is set aside throughout the country to grow corn.

I think the reason why Mexico values corn so much and respects it so much is mainly because corn has nurtured the Mexican people, and the Mexican people have created corn. They live by feeding each other.
