Thanks Seanflynn! I'm glad it still has Land of Enchantment on it. Guess they felt it was necessary after the Olympics in Atlanta debacle amongst many others(phone operators wouldn't sell them tickets as US residents...US Olympic Committee actually issued formal apologies in all the NM newspapers that year for their faux paus)

I can't believe Ali didn't know what a brat was.

Yeah KL, that seemed to be her wurst mistake yet.

Oh, I didn't know what a brat was until I moved to WI (from the SW). I couldn't believe the people in WI didn't know what a chorizo was, LOL. It's all regional I suppose.

LOL Weinermr! And Gouda grief, she didn't know what Brye (Brie) was either!

Whats Chorizo ?
Guess what state I live in......

Btw= during the food comp. none of them knew what lutefish is.
Its fish cooked in lye, and it tastes as bad as it smells.
It was in the gross food comp, and they still took it? How stupid is that?

Jazzzy...I'm guessing you're from the same state as ketchuplover! I lived in West Bend for 2 1/2 very cold years. Chorizo is Mexico's equivalent to German Brautwurst, only much spicier. Dangit...up there they didn't know what masa was either....but then, I didn't know what lutefish was either until I moved up there. :)

Chorizo is wonderful!!! :)

It can be spicey. OK, it is spicey, in varying degrees....LOL. But it is wonderful. :) But i'll never try lutefisk. :(

Think of chorizo like spicey bratwurst. Except more delicious. :)

Edited to say: I'll try lutefisk to win some money.....a substantial amount of money that is.

Yum yum, you betcha Hamsterlady...and I agree about the lutefish. Just smelling it was enough to turn your stomach (sorry to all you lutefish lovers out there, but I can't help it). I know there's some Norwegians (or is it Swedish?) out there that must like it still.

I meant yum yum to chorizo...on second reading...my prior post didn't type out quite the way I wanted it too, LOL

Un-spicy chorizo is faux-chorizo.

Cangaroo

Saturday, August 30, 2003 - 11:46 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
LOL Ric...very true. Un-spicy chorizo is...bratwurst! LOLOLOL

Exactly Canga! Chorizo is really yummy but you have to like spicey food. :P

Life without spicy food is simply not worth living.

You got that right Ric! My mouth waters just thinking about spicy food. Fortunately, I have the best of many cuisines. I grew up in NM, am Korean (another spicy one!) and married a hubby that loves both of those cuisines plus Chinese Szechuan...spicy life is yummy life.

"..spicy life is yummy life."

Exactly and indeed. :)

You are all making me hungry for my favorite spicy cuisine -- Tex Mex, from the land of my birth!

I'm snackin' green chili on tortilla chips now...some odd reason I got in the mood.

Bonza...I just sliced up some chorizo too...havin' a midnight snackfest here...

Canga... yum! Or rather, "yummy life"!

I'm getting hungry, too, Bonz! If it gets worse, I'll dash over to Benito's (a 24-hour fast-food joint across the street from the CBS Television Center on Fairfax & Beverly) and get one of their tasty chorizo & egg burritos!

Ric,

Why don't you go to Pink's and get a Jalapeno Dog, or a Spicy Polish Dog?

Ric_Munoz

Sunday, August 31, 2003 - 12:16 am EditMoveDeleteIP
Weiner--good idea except that those lines at Pink's drive me insane (or, rather, more insane than I already am). Plus, Benito's has better parking! But there's always tomorrow--that Jalapeño Dog sounds delightful!
