Refried beans are full of fat, alas.

(My favorite food, the worst contribution of Spanish culture to this Sephardic Jew.)

Mexican beans are usually cooked pinto beans refried with lard. Lard and more salt definitely makes it taste better. I've eaten rice and bean (and chicken) meals from other Hispanic cultures and the beans are not refried

Refried beans? Sephardic Jew?

FWIW, traditional Mexican cooking uses lard. Lots of it.

Lard comes from pigs. You might want to talk to your Rabbi about this ...

Just a fleeting thought....are they protesting in South Beach? Let's see a collection of photos from the major cities where protests are going on and see who has the best looking protesters. We'll have a contest...and people can call in with their votes!

"American Protester!"

Silly, yes, but so are these kids who are obviously being organized behind the scenes...which is not silly at all.
