Bean sightings in Mexico City! 🫘 🇲🇽

A couple interesting things:
🫘 The refried beans I had for breakfast every morning were black beans. Using lighter color beans is common further north.
🫘 All the pouches of refried beans in the grocery store. This time, I found one that included Mayocoba beans! But because Mayocoba beans are more expensive, it was 52% Mayocobas mixed with "Mayocoba, pinto, and/or white beans."

Happy and full of delicious beans! 😋
