I used to buy the best tasting tamales from a woman who sold them off the street in Mexico City. The first time I spotted her there was a line of Mexicans around the block waiting to be served from a couple of large aluminum pots, and I figured, this must be something good enough to be worth the wait. I wasn't wrong, and I came back for the next three days. But on the fourth day I got a little lanyappe in the form of an amoeba.

I lost 25 pounds in three days and didn't get my appetite back for two weeks, but when I think about my experience now, I believe that I could make a fortune if I could just find that bug and market it.

A long ago a friend of mine used to buy the best-tasing tamales from a street vendor in Amarillo Texas. After some years the vendor was shut down on account of the tamales' canine and feline ingredients. "But they sure were good!"
