Frutas Enchiladas
I am in love with a lolly pop. In the tradition of Mexican foods being heavy on chile, Thalia (the acclaimed muscian) has joined with Jolly Rancher to create a culturally sensitive lolly. Why assume that EVERY culture would like Watermelon jolly ranchers? Well no more do our taste buds have to suffer the monotony of "normal" flavors. We now have Limon, Mango and Tamarindo to choose from. I'm addicted. The only thing that acutally keeps me from finishing an entire bag of these is that they are spicey and the chile eventually swells my taste buds. For those of you who love the corn man as much as I (and those of you not aware who the corn man is, he (sometimes she) is the person who sells elotes(corn with cheese, mayo, butter and chile), mango with chile, watermelon with salt, and cucumbers with chile on the street, usually not in ritzy areas. Always in Mexican neighborhoods) will fall in love with these candies. They only sell them at Kmart and the occasional mexican tienda. Get them while they're hot. I bought 6 bags because I was afraid they would discontinue the line. Gringos just don't always appreciate the finer tastes of the world.

Whoa! Ethnic candies sanctioned by the government! These remind me of these watermelon lollipops kids used to sell in elementary school. They were hecho in Mexico and were covered with spicy tamarindo. You can only imagine the medley of flavors in the mouth--and they only cost a quarter. The only thing is, I very much doubt they were FDA approved.
