It's really not that different

Mexico is more like the US than Americans would probably like to admit. Corporate America's presence is ridiculous here.

People buy their groceries from Wal Mart, or Superama, which is also owned by Wal Mart. There's another grocery chain with a pelican logo, but I don't know if Wally World has an interest there.

The Mexican college students dress like Americans and I have yet to see someone wearing a sombrero or a poncho outside of Independence Day.

I've yet to see a Mexican auto company, though I'm pretty sure most of their cars are made here, primarily Fords, Chevy, Nissan or Volkswagen.

You see a lot of Coke being drunk and Marlboros being smoked. A fair share of the TV shows are from the US, either dubbed or subtitled, though most of them are on different channels that are also from the US.

The only real difference is the beer. I've yet to see anyone drinking a Bud or a Miller Lite here, or any lite beer all together. That makes sense, though, because their beer is better and cheaper than any of the domestic macrobrews.
