In new Mexico you can find green Chile everywhere. Stores, restaurants, farms, people even like to grow there own green Chile. I love green Chile, almost everyone in new Mexico does. In pretty much every restaurant they have green Chile on the menu. Green Chile is very important in new Mexico. the native Americans that lived here long before us used it. So did the Spanish settlers. Green Chile is also used for decoration, people will tie the peppers together and make big bunches out of them but that’s more commonly used for red Chile.
