Pretending Native American food is just Mexican food is Eastern Woodlands erasure.

Agreed, Native American food is extremely diverse. Knowing that the continent was as populous as Europe on a much wider range of climate I suspect the food was way more diverse than Europe at the same period.

Also, Mexican food is not just Native American food, it's a creolization of Spanish and Mesoamerican cuisine.

My point was just to say that native American cuisine deeply influenced the way we are eating today.
