Days of The Dead (Dias De Los Muertos)
Food and Drink

Days of the Dead rituals are intrinsically associated with food: special foods are not only prepared for the dead but for the living, too. Foods specifically associated with the holiday are eagerly awaited year round. (Days of the Dead recipes courtesy of Angela Villalba, of the Mexican Sugar Skull Company.)
