I asked my Swiss friend (who used to work at the US Embassy in Switzerland)
whether she had heard of Swiss Enchiladas:
Yes, I have heard of Swiss Enchiladas, but not in Switzerland, I have seen
the name only in Mexican Restaurants. Have I ever thought about why they
are called Swiss? Not really. So many things, especially foods are called
Swiss something in this country that have little to no connection to
Switzerland, except that they might be made of a dairy ingredient. I usually
stay away from products which are called Swiss since they are usually not
authentic, except for the imported Swiss cheese, which as we know is not
really called Swiss cheese but Emmenthaler.
And so, straight from the Schweizedeutschen Mund.
Grüße,
Andrea
