Magical Squeeze of Lime Transforms White Person’s Homemade Tacos Into Authentic Mexican Cuisine

A local white person has reportedly witnessed real-life magic when a squeeze of fresh lime juice took their cheesy “Mexican food” and transformed it into mouth-watering authentic Mexican cuisine.

Having felt a little bit “too white”, Ben Lollar, 42, had decided to take their Mexican “tacos” to the next level by embracing the humble lime, and was unprepared for just how much it changed his perception of the flavours in front of him.

“It was like real-life magic, I was blown away”, Ben said, “all of a sudden I was tasting limey kinda flavours just like I imagine they do in Mexico City.”

“The lime juice really cuts through the cheese and kind of curdles the sour cream, so it’s top notch Mexican chow now.”  Asked where he got the inspiration, Ben explained, “My smartarse kid Glen kept saying how ‘white’ I was because I was sweating over a Butter Chicken curry the other day and it got to me. So when Taco Tuesday rolled around I had a point to prove and I remembered I’d put limes in Corona’s before and they're kinda Mexican so why not?” With limes used liberally in authentic Mexican cuisine, Ben seemingly arrived at the right destination despite taking an abstract path, and has already begun talking down to people who still do what he did as recently as last week. “Glen was right. Minced beef, mild salsa, cheese and sour cream on a taco? Haha please… some people are so white”, he remarked, “For me it’s gotta be minced beef, mild salsa, cheese, sour cream and a squeeze of lime just like they do in ME-HI-CO.”  Whether or not it has improved the authenticity of Ben’s attempts at Mexican cuisine, he believes it has, which is close enough for this author and frankly sounds delicious either way.

More to come.
