Jarritos -- Top Product!

Michael Whenever I work from home, I get a burrito for lunch from the Mexican eatery around the corner. The sales dialogue is always the same: "Burrito to go on a wheat flour tortilla, please. Cheese? No cheese. What kind of beans? Refried beans. What kind of meat? Steak. Anything else? Mild salsa, guacamole, sour cream, please." Translation for non-Californians: Burrito (wheat pancake roll with filling), no cheese, refried beans, shredded beef, mild salsa (tomatoes and cilantro, slightly spicy), guacamole (avocado-based paste), and sour cream. The burrito then costs about five dollars, I eat half of it, and Angelika warms up the other half in the microwave in the evening when she comes home from photography school. I've been doing this once a week for about four years now. But recently, I discovered another treat in the Mexican's refrigerated section: the "Jarritos" soda.

A genuine "Product of Mexico," as the label indicates, and certainly made with additives that are not permitted in Germany. How else could this delicious lemonade in the "Lemon" version taste like the woodruff soda that was available at kiosks in German swimming pools in the seventies? If you ever find yourself in California or Mexico, you absolutely must try it. Oh, all the sweetness of youth is contained in this bottle!
