Plants that are used in the preparation of food are grown both in the patios of the houses and on the land intended for cultivation, or some are collected, such as peanuts, sweet potatoes, chives or xonacate, chayote, epazote, pumpkin, cocuite, izote and nettle flowers, mint, nopal, pemuche, pine nut, purslane and yucca, as well as some mushrooms like cuitlacoche, chaca mushroom and oak mushroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
