MrChuy’s Video: “If Mexican Moms Did Food Delivery Part 2”
By COCINA Team
When Comedy Feels a Little Too Real
If you’ve seen MrChuy’s comedy video imagining a Mexican mom doing food delivery, you probably laughed—and then paused—because it felt too accurate. At COCINA Team, that’s exactly what caught our attention. The exaggerated scolding, the unsolicited advice, the “I added extra just in case”—it’s comedy, yes, but it’s also cultural truth.
Part 2 of If Mexican Moms Did Food Delivery is inspired by that video energy: the idea that when a Mexican mom cooks for you, it’s never just food. It’s concern. It’s memory. It’s “text me when you get home.” And suddenly, your usual food delivery order feels… emotionally underseasoned.
Delivery Food vs. Mom Food: Not a Fair Fight
Let’s be honest. We love food delivery apps. They’re fast, efficient, and available at 11:47 p.m. when you’re too tired to think. But what they don’t deliver is intention.
A Mexican mom doesn’t cook because she’s hungry—she cooks because you might be hungry. She’s thinking about balance (“You’ve had too much fried food”), texture (“This needs crunch”), and timing (“Eat this while it’s hot”). Her kitchen operates on intuition, not algorithms.
MrChuy’s video nails this contrast perfectly. The mom isn’t rushing. She’s correcting. She’s upgrading. She’s making sure you’re okay. And somehow, by the time she hands you the plate, you trust her more than any five-star rating.
That’s the magic missing from most food delivery experiences: confianza.
Why the Mexican Mom Is the Original Local Provider
Before apps, there was the neighborhood mom. The one everyone knew cooked really well. The one you paid in cash, compliments, or favors. The one who always sent you home with extra tortillas “por si acaso.”
Mexican food, at its core, is about care. Slow-simmered sauces. Fresh tortillas. Recipes passed down, not optimized. When a mom cooks, she’s not following a trend—she’s continuing a story.
So yes, we’re half-joking when we say “trust your local Mexican mom over a delivery app.” But also… we’re not.
What to Order from Your Trusted Mexican Mom
If you’re lucky enough to have a Mexican mom in your life—or in your neighborhood—who cooks, here are some dishes worth asking for (politely, respectfully, and with containers ready).
1. Margarita Chicken Taquitos

Crispy, juicy, and perfect for sharing (even though you probably won’t). These taquitos balance comfort and flavor, with seasoned chicken wrapped in tortillas and fried to golden perfection. Mom might pack extra salsa “because taquitos are dry without it.”

Mexican moms know how to make vegetables feel like a full meal. These casseroles are layered, hearty, and deeply satisfying—proof that comfort food doesn’t always need meat, just seasoning and love.

Ask any Mexican mom and she’ll have opinions on tortillas. Corn for tacos. Flour for burritos. This guide—and the recipes—will help you understand why tortilla choice matters more than the filling.

A Gentle Push Away from the App
We’re not saying delete your food delivery apps. We’re just saying: next time you’re craving something comforting, consider a different option. Call. Text. Ask nicely.
Because when a Mexican mom cooks for you, she’s doing more than feeding you. She’s checking in. She’s caring. She’s making sure you’re okay—even if she pretends it’s just about the food.
MrChuy’s video reminds us that comedy often works because it reflects reality. And the reality is this: no app knows you like a mom does.
Conclusion: Trust the Mom
In If Mexican Moms Did Food Delivery Part 2, the joke lands because it’s rooted in truth. Mexican moms don’t just deliver meals—they deliver reassurance, flavor, and a sense of belonging.
So if you have a Mexican mom you trust—your own, a friend’s, or the one down the street—maybe trust her kitchen over an app once in a while. The food will be better. The portions will be bigger. And you’ll probably leave with leftovers and life advice.
That’s not just food delivery.
That’s delivery with corazón.
