Food as other means a dynamic process running along three axes: from exotic to familiar inedible to edible and unpalatable to palatable, most Americans regard mainstream interpretations of southwestern cuisine as highly familiar and appetizing.

The southwestern cuisine can be popularity and general acceptance through several phenomena:

First of all, in the late twentieth century immigration from Mexican, Asia and the Caribbean, and from other Latin American countries, they bring the cuisine from their country. As a a result latin tastes and preferences are beginning to wield more influence in mainstream American a cuisine.

Second of all, the cuisine thoroughly accepted by Americans, because the food is provides nutrition, calories, satisfaction, and pleasure.

Third of all, southwestern cuisine has found such wide acceptance because of its constructer masculine identity allowing for broader general appeal.

Finally, Americans embrace southwestern cuisine in part because of its evocation of a romantic, sanitized version of the American southwest and understanding of the west in general.
