    Afaik, it’s traditional to Central American (and maybe South American?) cuisine, but I don’t know any science-y aspects to it’s use. You make salsas and guac directly in it, and I can say they do hit different, but I can’t say exactly why.

      Yeah I read something about those. Blends differently than in a blender. I buy that.

      Perhaps the original reason was just that that type of stone was available there and this type over here?
