Mexicans usually decored altars to honor the death ones by offering them their favorite food they used to like when they were alive.In the homes, family members honor the ones who are death with ofrendas or offerings which consist of photographs, bread, other foods, flowers, toys and other symbolic offerings especially personal belongings.
