Last night I realized I consumed an entire 12.5oz bottle of Norteña Arriba Habañero Heat Salsa in less than 24 hours. That seemed like a lot of salsa eatin', but it was some good salsa. I also like the Norteña Tomatillo al Carbon a real, real lot. That stuff is so good I can eat it with a spoon.

I still feeling kind of stupid about my salsa binge at lunchtime when I stopped in a Taco Cabana. I used to be kind of bewildered by the whole chickens I see roasting on the grills there. They must sell quite a few of them, since there's always a half-dozen cooking there, but I eventuall decided people must buy them for take out and feed a whole family. So, there's a heavy-set white guy ahead of me in line. Becuase he was wearing a polo shirt bearing the logo of a local Toyota dealership, I assumed he was on lunch break. The kid behind the counter was like, "You want the whole chicken?"
"Yeah."
"To go, right?"
"No, for here, please."
This guy was going to eat an entire roasted chicken in the restaurant. I suddenly felt a lot better about my Habañero Heat binge.

I used to be a little afraid of Habañero peppers because of their reputation for spiciness, but now I love their fruity taste. Readers in Philadelphia take note: there's a Tex-Mex cart on the Penn campus that has an awesome Habañero salsa. The first time I was there, the proprietor was like, "Our hot sauce is an Habañero salsa, are you sure?"
I was all, "Bring it on!"
I didn't discover it until my last week in Philly, unfortunately, since I had a hard time finding decent food there. There are two Tex-Mex carts on Spruce at the 37th street light, this is the non-descript one further north. I took iZac there when he helped me move, and he agreed that it was some tasty Tex-Mex.
