Vitamina T - A Colorful Look Into Mexico's Vibrant Food Scene



There's nothing better than a taco when the hunger pangs strike, and Vitamina T is an absolutely delicious look into the world of the Mesamerican street food festival, an event that takes place annually in Mexico City during May.

Colorful, eclectic and filled with flavors for any palate imaginable, we're offered a look at the festival from the break of dawn till the late hours of night. In between those hours we witness the preparation and consumption of an incredible line up of local specialties ranging from tacos, tortas, tamalaes, tlacoyos and everything in between. In a humorous break amidst all the amazing imagery, we even get to see a squirrel enjoying a snack during the day.



Director Nanda Fernandez Berdillard did an incredible job capturing the essence of the colorful city, and it's gastronomical tendencies. I'd skip this one if you're currently hungry, it'll make things a lot worse.

Quiero Club - "El Techo es el Suelo"



Mexican experimental indie pop band Quiero Club have that similar chill sound that I've been pretty fond of lately, and the video for the track "El Techo es el Suelo" (or, "The Ceiling is the Floor") has an equally surreal and moody look.  At static man is seen harrassing (haunting?) a few people in a remote, quiet neighborhood, with implications that make the mind wonder.  The best part is definitely the opening shot though, for reasons that should be obvious.

Mexican Nyan Cat Makes The Meme Fresh Again



I was getting so insanely sick of the whole Nyan Cat meme till I was introduced to this amazing south of the border adaptation of our favorite space cat, now decked out in a Sombrero, thick mustache and with a neverending trail of Mexican flag. And screw Pop Tarts...We're all about the Tacos now, bitches. Go Mexinyan!
