Mexico’s Killing Fields
What does “Hecho en México” mean ?
I got a bumper sticker at a street fair in Mexico that was a play on the “Hecho en México” export logo with the eagle graphic. Mine is the same but says, “Hecho un Mendigo.” My Mexican friends think it’s funny. Problem is, they can’t really explain the joke to me They try to tell me it means something like “Made in the Streets” or “Made by Funky Poor People” or “Made Me a Poor Person.” Anybody know ?
Hecho en Mexico means Made in Mexico
Mendigo can mean a beggar, or just a slang term meaning ‘you a-hole’

Mendigo would be like a "son of a gun" or someone who is crafty. Like if you and a friend wanted to get the same girl’s phone number and he got it before you, you would call him a mendigo, cause he beat you out. Hope this helps some.

A Mendigo is like a stupid person. It literally means stupid male.

Half of this people is SO wrong. Mendigo indeed means beggar but it´s also a slang term that means something like… let me think….I understand your friends ´cause i´ts hard to translate.
mendIgo with stress on the I means beggar
mEndigo with stress on the e is slang and it really has a lot of meanings, it depends on the context.
When you say someone is a "MEndigo" it could mean he is a jerk, or maybe good for cheating, it depends but it generally means that that person is very good at something that it´s not at all good.
