Belize. Guatemala. El Salvador. Honduras. Nicaragua. Costa Rica. Panama.
I stole (then modified slightly) this mnemonic device that a facebook friend created to remember the names of the countries in Central America. I wondered...shouldn't it be *MY* Big Gorillas Eat Hamburgers Not Cold Pizza because...isn't Mexico part of Central America?
With a simple question comes a simple blog post....
Wikipedia says no. WorldAtlas says no. SICA says no. NAFTA (duh! that should have been my clue!) says no.
No. Mexico is not part of Central America. Mexico is part of North America.
Thus, big gorillas (all of them, not just mine) eat hamburgers not cold pizza.
