This is mostly true for the entire US. But not just Texmex, there are a lot of variations. Like the Chipotle burritos that started in San Fransisco.

And not just Mexican food, most food is altered somewhat for the US tastes. That orange chicken at the Chinese restaurant was invented in the us.

I have found what I believe are authentic Mexican restaurants. But we were the only non-Mexicans there and they were cooking dishes like whole fried fish.

It’s algorithmic to get you to pay more. The price will go up during high demand. Their “sales” are often more than the normal price. Then the price will go back down when demand falls. It works (for Amazon).

We need a law that the price stated is the total price like in Europe, including tax, tip, fees, etc.

These will be successful, but nowhere close to the levels of the iPhone. They are too expensive and lacks the everyday use cases for most people. Besides, Apple cannot even make them in super high numbers.

They are not common because it is possible to use them incorrectly and cause a fire.

Several states have relaxed child labor laws in response to the cost of labor going up. Business’ were screaming “nobody wants to work (at the price we want to pay)”.
