Things Where Mexico Has the #1 Place

[WhatTheHellAmy2]

Hello, there. Welcome to my first MyTake after 4 years.

Today we'll talk about CATEGORIES IN WHICH MY COUNTRY RANKS # 1

We'll go through those prideful first-place rankings and also those shameful ones.

1. Mexico occupies the # 1 place in Spanish. We are the most populated Spanish speaking country worldwide. (And third most populated in America, after the US and Brazil).

2. With 11.5 million, we are the country with the biggest amount of foreign-born population in the United States. We are also the top sending country since 2015.

Adorable mexicans leaving my country.

3. Mexico ranks first in the Americas and seventh in the world for number of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

4. Mexico has remained the world‘s largest producer, and it has maintained that lead for some years now.

5. Major beer producer. 1 out of 5 beers exported in the world, come from Mexico.

6. World leader in cyber crime, a 50 % of those are linked to child pornography, where we also lead worldwide.

Shameful. So so heartbreaking. This made me so ashamed. What a pity that we have so much potential but that we have this horrible first place.

6. Main avocado exporter. World leaders in making this amazing fruit get to your table!

I liked this actually. It gives you credit, that you clearly refrained from being biased and took the sour with the sweets.
1/5 beers come from Mexico? I didn't know that, but I do know, that Dutch brewery "Heineken" is the second largest brewery in the world and Danish brewery "Carlsberg" is the fourth biggest. But when you look at the numbers for beer production worldwide, neither Netherlands or Denmark is close to the top.

So you see, because of reading this, I not only learned initially, but I even learned further down the road, because it made me wonder and I had to dig around for the numbers.

All because of you - not bad at all!! :) haha.

The numbers in question, by the way:
(only included significant ones)

Rank Country Tonnes (Metric Tons)
1 China, mainland 49,219,000
2 United States of America 22,600,000
3 Brazil 14,000,000
4 Germany 8,723,136
5 Mexico 8,588,180
6 United Kingdom 4,120,400
13 Netherlands 2,369,600
38 Denmark 610,700

CHEERS FROM DENMARK :)

I know you and I have discussed extensively about this topic, but it is hilarious the number of Mexican descent people in the United States of America that act as if getting sent back to México is a life-ruining punishment. They're all Mexican pride and proud of their Spanish speaking skills around gringos, but dread the idea of returning to or living in México.
Oh no, you might spend 1/4 the amount of money on dental care as you would in the USA, and now have consistently warm weather, how terrible.
I wouldn't even mind living in México for work if I didn't have family I am tied to here.

[WhatTheHellAmy2]

Yeah, I know this. I really hate those mexicans.

And believe me when I say many of us dislike them. They’re probably more racist than you guys.

You’re welcome anytime you’d like to come. Let me know and I’ll make sure you get a good deal. I am in Playa del Carmen with my husband now.

[DeeDeeDeVour]

Why do you have two (2) #6s? Anyway #2 & the first #6 are definitely nothing to be proud of.

[WhatTheHellAmy2]

Oh yeah, didn’t notice I had two 6.

And yeah, I was supposed to tell the goods and bads.

[ChocoLada]

Wow, Mexico is such an interesting country, and you have fantastic food 😋
I thought that Mexico has the 1st place in Cocoa production too, cause the Mayans, Olmecs and Aztecs were the first ones who started making hot chocolate 🍫☕️

[Anonymous]

Great Take Amy, I love avocado, guacamole is one of my favorite dips ;)
I think Mexico's capital is also famous for being the city with most museums and art galleries in the word.
Mexico City also has the largest taxi-cab fleet in the world.

[anonimustırrek]

Are you from mexico? I love you latina girls! So beatiful!!

[WhatTheHellAmy2]

Mexican, yes :)

[anonimustırrek]

Do you have any sisters? Or mexican friends?

[WhatTheHellAmy2]

Haha she’s 3 years old.

I have Mexican friends but they’re not pretty, if I’m honest.

[anonimustırrek]

We whites are really bored of our women. White white and white. Blonde, blonde and blonde.

Brunette babes wanted in this country!

[WhatTheHellAmy2]

Are you really 17?

To go Vancouver. I heard there’s variety there.

[anonimustırrek]

Uhh.. I am from poland so..
Do you live in Canada or mexico?

[WhatTheHellAmy2]

Oh! Your profile says Canada.

I think polish and Slavic girls in general are very pretty :)

[WhatTheHellAmy2]

Are u 17?

[anonimustırrek]

Yes, I am 17. Why?

[anonimustırrek]

Canada is a multicultural country. One day I will be immigrating to Canada. I can find mexicans over there.

[WhatTheHellAmy2]

Hahah yeah, you can. But why not mexico instead? Haha

I thought you were older for the way you speak

[anonimustırrek]

Well there not that much difference between my age and your age. Just 3 years 😀

[LingyRolls]

Sexy Amy! Mexican girls are so cute.

[anonimustırrek]

I'll visit mexico too. If get money

[WhatTheHellAmy2]

You’re very welcome in Playa del Carmen!

[anonimustırrek]

See you honey :D

[ZeussLightningBolt]

You guys also have the most museums in the world.
I think you should've posted more negative ones to balance it, but still a good take.

[WhereAmI]

Make America Mexico Again 😂

World leader in cybercrime? way to brag! 😂

[mattdzz]

Number one country I'd skip over to go to Costa Rica.

[WhatTheHellAmy2]

Too bad you’re losing time on this site instead of traveling

[mattdzz]

How do you know I'm not traveling internationally rn? This is an Iphone app...

[Vulture051]

The avocado industry is largely controlled by the cartels.

[Poormanscomedian]

i will tell you Mexico is about out of silver and this will in itself cause silver to increase to $20 an ounce.

[Iwant2kno]

This is actually a great MyTake. 👍🏼♥️

[WhatTheHellAmy2]

Thank you!

[howlyz]

I love Mexico, I hope one day I will visit and travel Mexico back to back

[Anonymous]

You're proud of the fact that 11 million people fled your country?
I'm not trying to insult you or be aggressive.. but I really don't think that's a good thing.

[WhatTheHellAmy2]

I don’t understand why people don’t get it...

I mean, if you read carefully I said “good and shameful things”.

I’m definitely not proud. Did you understand the meme? The meme is pretty much an insult to these Mexicans living there.

I’ve never been outside Mexico and if I were to leave this country, I’d do it legally.

[TonyMetal86]

What about marriage and devoted housewives?

[Anonymous]

Interesting myTake, I like Mexico very much.

[Secretgardenblood]

Good take.

[WhatTheHellAmy2]

Thanks!

[Razal]

Interesting Information.

[coolbreeze]

Interesting mytake

[CT_CD]

#8 beheading people

[WhatTheHellAmy2]

Nah, that’s Somalia

[DeeDeeDeVour]

Saudi Arabia probably ranks 1st in beheadings.

[WhatTheHellAmy2]

@DeeDeeDeVour www.telegraph.co.uk/.../

Second

[NovissimumVirorum]

Mexico probably ranks pretty high for beheadings with the cartels

[WhatTheHellAmy2]

@NovissimumVirorum not the first 10 tho

[NovissimumVirorum]

What about drugs?
