If you don't know about mole, it's essentially a sauce made up of spices, chiles, and chocolate that gets poured over meat.
It's also one of the few ways to ruin otherwise perfectly delicious Mexican food.
First off, mole lovers (especially my tía) will tell you that it tastes like chocolate, AND THAT'S A DAMN LIE.
You take that first bite expecting to have chocolatey goodness, but get the taste of edible boiled rubber instead.
That grainy, goopy, thick mess will suffocate your taste buds...
…while the disgusting taste then lingers in your mouth, so you’re forced to suffer even after choking down the worst bite of your life.
And good luck finding other food to wash out the taste, BECAUSE THE DAMN MOLE HAS INFILTRATED EVERY PIECE OF YOUR OTHERWISE PERFECT MEAL.
Mole lovers aren’t stopping at just your meal — they’re determined to ruin EVERYTHING.
WHAT DID CUPCAKES DO TO DESERVE THIS??
And who thought it was okay to desecrate fries like that?!
THERE'S EVEN MOLE PIE. Like, really?? WHY?
Don't even try to say it's because I haven't "had the right kind of mole."
Because honestly, it doesn't ever look remotely appealing enough to eat.
Why would anyone willingly choose to eat what looks like a BP oil spill all over their food?
The point is, mole needs to be fucking stopped.
Mexican food is already a gift to humankind. Why ruin it with a ridiculous chile-chocolate concoction?
