    So for some reason I'm into 1.5 of those Divergent movies tonight

    I know there's a book series that predates the movies but this is like a blatant ripoff of Hunger Games and Maze Runner, but shittier. I don't understand how these movies got made

    Mexican food from Mississippi is probably the last thing in this world I would ever guess someone would say they prefer

    It’s not Mexican food, though. It’s a different dish at this point. It’s like saying Texas BBQ is Caribbean food.

    Truth. I grew up in the whitest town that can possibly exist and we had an incredible Mexican restaurant.

    Not to mention it was brought by Mexicans working fields in the delta and adopted by black and other minority sharecroppers. It's not just rednecks cooking Mexican food.

    I am not him but it is legit. So legit the town near where they had their food truck gave them hefty incentives to open a brick & mortar and expand.

    But they are strictly delicious. I had never had real tamales until I moved out to Houston 10 years ago. People in the southeast are missing out.

    I say this because tamales from Central America are drastically different than those from Mexico.

    I get frozen pupusas pretty much every time we go to the ethnic market. Throw them in the iron skillet with a little oil and they might not be the real deal but it’s a damn good substitute.

    There's is food truck that I pass occasionally that sells them. Regret that I haven't stopped yet. But it's in a weird part of town I'm rarely in unless I'm going to play disc golf at one park in particular

    I only said Mexican because its the most common theory. There is some evidence to think Native Americans of the delta region had a similar food well before then.

    I picked up a sausage biscuit meal from Jack for his morning as I was in a rush and feeling fat. I asked for 0 condiments. This was what I got. We are the most wasteful society imaginable.
