TRUTH !!
This question is asked in restaurants in New Mexico because many dishes in
the state are accompanied by either red peppers or green peppers, or both.
So why do waiters ask “Red or green?”? Because New Mexican dishes are
typically smothered in a red or green chile sauce. When you order your
enchiladas, chile rellenos, huevos rancheros, tamales, stuffed sopapillas,
or pretty much anything you order, the next thing you are asked is “Red or
green?” – meaning – So you want it smothered in red chile sauce or green
chile sauce. If you can’t decide, you can always order “Christmas” and get
both.
BTW; New Mexico is the only one of the Fifty to have an official question.
