Local Tips
Supermarket Guide
La Comer/City Market: upscale, lots of imports. Walmart/Chedraui: mid-range. Bodega Aurrera/Soriana: budget-friendly. Costco exists and accepts US membership!
Ordering at Markets
At traditional markets, prices are often negotiable. Learn basic Spanish numbers. '¿Cuánto cuesta?' (how much?), '¿Me da dos?' (give me two). Vendors appreciate the effort!
Street Food Safety
Street food is generally safe if you follow these rules: Look for busy stalls with high turnover. Check if they use separate utensils for raw and cooked food. Avoid salads and fresh salsas initially. Stick to well-cooked items like tacos al pastor or quesadillas.
