12.28.11|Hola! [Salted Plums]
Recap (Other Ed): My current job requires me to wander around a bit. Not that I think about Ed! all that often, but generally when I run into a foodstuff that looks dubious and vaguely revolting I can’t help but wonder if Ed! will shove it into his mouth for your viewing pleasure.
So when I found myself in an Old Town San Diego gift shop killing time before a meeting, I found a corner of snacks and candies. I noted the existence of the following items.
1. Tamarind Burrito - I decided not to get him this because it might give him the diabetes…and make his teeth rot away at the same time.
2. Greñitas con chili - I have no idea what these are or what “amer pulp” is but the literal translation seems to be “little mops with chili”. It looked suspiciously like another tamarind product so I put them back.
3. Chili Coated Gummy Worms - I mean, it just sounded weird, but not gross enough to enjoy Ed! eating.
4. Hola! Salted Plums - Ultimately I went with these. If I could only convey what it felt like to pick up that package and observe the little nuggets suspended in that viscous goo. I was certain the goo was created partially by the tears of those that had to make this product.
Verdict: Upon viewing this footage at about 1:40 I was sure I had changed Ed!’s life forever.
