But sopes aren't just popular in Mexico - they're also gaining popularity around the world. You can find sope shops in cities like Los Angeles, New York, and even Tokyo. And it's no wonder - sopes are the perfect comfort food for anyone looking for a tasty, filling meal that won't break the bank.
So, if you ever find yourself in Mexico (or even just at a Mexican restaurant in your hometown), be sure to try a sope (or three, or four...). Your taste buds will thank you, and you might just find yourself becoming a sope addict like the rest of us. And don't worry if you get a little carried away - after all, as the Mexicans say, "un sope al día keeps la doctor away" (that's "an sope a day keeps the doctor away" for you non-Spanish speakers).
