Delimex Taquitos

Unlike most diet blogs, I can’t guarantee that every single food item I bring up is going to be taken from the “it’s good for you” files. After all, this category is called, “You Know What Sounds Good Right Now?” and not “You Know What Kind of Vegetable I Should Be Eating Right Now?”

So today’s little healthy tidbit is the Delimex Chicken Taquito. I don’t know what’s in them and I don’t want to know. After all, it’s just a cardboard box from Sam’s Club containing some sort of food product wrapped in plastic. These could be soylent green taquitos for all I know. The important thing is that you can pull a small handful of these puppies out of the freezer and in less than five minutes, you’re scalding your tongue with the most delicious quasi-Mexican food the Wal-Mart family can provide.

I won’t tell you how many of these our family goes through in a week. But I will tell you that buying Delimex stock wouldn’t be the worst financial decision you ever made.

In other random news, I watched Star Wars last night (the original 1977 film … er, well, the strange 1997 version of the original 1977 film) and something occurred to me. At the end, when they’re piling into the X-wing fighters to destroy a “that’s no moon” sized space station with two little balls of light, I thought to myself, “What the heck is Luke doing in there?” I mean, he was a farm boy like six days ago. Sure, maybe he bullseyed womp rats in his T-16 back home, but isn’t that like putting a crop duster pilot inside an F-16 and saying, “Good luck with the intense air battle ahead of you.”
