My uncle, who moved to Texas and had the Green Bay South grapefruit ranch with the Mexican border practically in his back yard, introduced us to fajitas about 1965...still love ‘em!

Exactly, most of what this Karen is calling “cultural appropriation” is literally a blend of Eurpoean and Meztizo cooking — aka “Tex-Mex”.

Fajitas — started with cattle drives
Nachos — literally a Texas baseball team
Anything involving wheat, most famously the Jewish invention of the flour tortilla (for Passover)

Heck, tequila was Spanish invention using native blue agave.

Most Mexican beer owes its origins to German immigrants (hence why it’s mainly lagers)

This bitch is not only a Karen; she’s a stupid Karen.
