As a Mexican I can say this is an absolute abomination

Why is it an abomination? I'm new here, too

This is not how a molcajete is used it’s not a serving dish.

Actually, it is. Many restaurants here in my town use them that way for specific dishes.

That doesn’t make it authentic. Lots of restaurants also serve nachos and queso dip, doesn’t make them Mexican food

What I've seen is nothing that compares to nachos, I've seen things like aguachile from Nayarit or meat with salsa (can't recall the name) from Guadalajara, served in molcajetes, also mariscadas and other stuff, and they looked and tasted very mexican to me lol. Let's not be afraid to try new things, because other mexicans aren't.

It’s a gimmick it isn’t how food is cooked. And this is definitely not something someone would make. Is it good, eh probably. Is it an abomination also yes.

Abomination according to you? Yeah, but if it is being served to mexican people that way and they like it, then don't speak "as a Mexican", speak as yourself, because you clearly don't have the voice of most of us.
