Forget the 5 de Mayo, in Mexico the traditional patriotic month is September. During this month Mexicans celebrate the war of independence. The way to celebrate is going to the local square on the 15 September to listen to the local mayor ring a bell and shout of patriotism for the national heroes:
¡Viva Mexico!
And of course there is a lot of traditional food involved.
