“MEXICO CITY – A day-long protest dubbed “A Day Without Gringos” drew thousands of Mexicans into the streets on Monday and kept many away from U.S.-owned supermarkets and fast-food restaurants to support rallies in the United States demanding immigration reform.

Some Mexicans said staying away from U.S. businesses was tough, and customers streamed into some branches of Wal-Mart, McDonald’s and Burger King in Mexico City.”
