The Spanish arrived in Mexico with cinnamon, garlic, onions, rice, sugarcane, wheat, and, most importantly, hogs, which added a reliable source of domesticated protein and lard to the native diet.These additions combined with indigenous ingredients produce the classic flavors and foods of Mexican cuisine, such as corn tortillas with pork filling; tomato, chile, and onion sauces or salsas; rice and beans; and panfried boiled beans, known as frijoles refritos, or, as they are incorrectly called in English, refried beans.The Spanish also introduced the distillation of alcohol to native Mexican fermented beverages; tequila and mescal were the result.
