It's the law but due to how working for wage thieving losers works, it doesn't happen in practice.

I think just hotel breakfast rooms

I'll add one two letter word in case you were confused.

There was a slightly different version of this around a month or two ago where the whole class was Navajo

Somehow this became a cultural thing in the US. In some other countries like in South America it’s perfectly normal for 3-4 generations to live under 1 roof.

My guess is it’s tied to making people spend more money for capitalism. The effect it’s had on families is not very positive. It leads to things like elderly people draining thousands from their savings or family members a month for nursing homes. People have to hire child care when otherwise family members could watch a child. Children grow up with more distance from older relatives. Buying additional homes and cars is way more expensive than sharing them. Additional cable and utility bills. More appliances. More food waste.

That makes sense to me. I bet it would be a lot like guac if you added oil and more seasonings. It's not like an avocado really tastes like much of anything by itself.

Come to think of it, I've seen picante sauce in baked potato fixin' bars.

What's good and what people think is normal for certain foods is in a large part cultural context and habit. If people weren't used to it, I doubt if someone saying "you know, what these fried potatoes need is a lacto-fermented tomato sauce with onion, garlic, spices and vinegar" would sound appetizing.

It happens all the time in southwestern cuisine. Cubed potatoes are pretty common in breakfast burritos and of course I'd put salsa on that.

That's basically what you get in a breakfast burrito or huevos rancheros. Potatoes are pretty neutral so if it matches the rest of the meal, not bad at all. I put hot sauce and salsa on basically everything so it would be fine with me.
