¿Se puede preparar la comida mexicana?
Can someone please help me translate what this says? ¿Se puede preparar la comida mexicana?
It doesn't make sense to me but I think it should say, "¿Puedes preparar la comida mexicana? Does this sound right?
Thanks!

I would translate it as:
"One can prepare mexican food?" or "Someone can cook mexican food?"
These are not literal translation, but what it would be close to meaning. Literally:
"It is possible to prepare mexican food?"
In English, this makes sense as an exclamation. Like: "Really? Its possible to make mexican food? I didn't know that."
the phrase seems to be incomplete. Is it suppost to be a questions? literally means: it is possible to prepare mexican food? But the structure is not right for a question. It is not even asking if it is possible, basically it is an affirmation with question marks.
