Did you know that the 5th of May in Mexico was not Independence Day but a day when Mexico's army was the unlikely victor of a large battle? A battle when they were outmatched but came together as the underdog.
Cinco de Mayo embodies a culture of coming together as one. That's a good thing. In the U.S., even if Cinco de Mayo means margaritas, chips and good salsa without the historic significance, I'd like to raise a chip with great salsa to all of you.
