Jícama con Chile powder.
I like Jícama like this. It's a fairly common substitute for water chestnut.

why are you picking on our hermanos japonese?
and WTF is a diablito?
me and Billy the Jap were laughing at all the crap they wanna sell in the line. talk about a captive audience. a surfing monkey, bart simpson, every
authentic nfl serape' known to "the league". and don't get me started on the Oaxacana's standing on shoulders, 4 feet high juggling. their parents
should be castrated!!!! put those kids in school, not the border line..... WTF?
and the food selection is WORSE! from a fresh squeezed churro to a tostiloco!

that reminds me of the days when i was in kindergarden. mom was struggling. we made quesadillas with butter, wished we had some cheese.
i can still see those boxes of prunes on the pantry shelf. after the govt cheese was gone, at the end of the month there was only prunes, and a
grumbling tummy. i still hate prunes.
i miss you mom!

Frozen fruit bars - the ones that are 100% chunks of fruit squashed together and frozen, not the more commonly found ones with fruit in 'ice cream'.
Just fruit. Delicious!
Odd.... apparently Jan, Dennis, Sally 'n me are the only nomads enjoying these snacks.
What's up? Everyone else on a diet?
