Tex comes from the state in northern mexican food culture brought by spaniards, mostly basques, and the mestizaje of injun foods.
Mex is just a reminder it's the stuff that people ate before the americans invaded/annexed the state. In conjunction it's amerislop because americans love to streamline the process and take the soul and technique out of anything, also because they are lazy.
In OP's picture the rice is similar to the seasoned rice spaniards brought us, rather than tomato sauce and spices americans just paint it and put black beans in there which are not from the area, injuns up north didn't eat black beans.
The flour tortilla is industrialized and americanized, this is obvious as it sports no air bubbles, looks like cardboard and doesn't have the shine from the tallow.
Nobody fucking puts cream in salads up north, other than that it looks the part but americans for some reason use jalapeรฑos in Tex-Mex despite them not being from the area, real knowers use serrano chilis.
The beans are americanized, they are too pale to have chili, too dry and opaque to have lard and there's no bean pieces meaning it was mixed and processed rather than mashed.
