That's enough to make me want to make it myself. I have recipes
squirreled away, and it seems to be quite easy.

Hmmm. How has soy crept into this?

Yep, I eat it all the time. I love it with hot corn tortillas.

I like the chorizo but this Mexican style is a little tough to handle.
The sausage looks great in the package but the ingredients always make
me put that sausage back in the display case. What's it like to eat one
of these?

In sausage like this I don't mind a little soy flour and TVP. How about
96.5% or so to start? :-)

Soybeans were big stuff in the 70s with my friend in the School of
Tropical Agriculture. I though those guys were always slackers for
choosing that field of study - I was right too. :-) They thought soy was
gonna be the food of the future. Looks like they were right! :-)

Well, as far as sales and making money goes. Other than that, I
think this overconsumption of soy is extremely unwise.

I don't have any opinion in this matter since I haven't noticed any
overconsumption or reports of any problems with soy. However, I'll keep
on the lookout for this. It's likely that you're correct that there is
soy in a lot of foods we eat. The reason this is true is that the
economics favor it. These days, the money factor seems to be of primary
concern. It's the reason we have HFCS as the sweetener of choice and the
soon-to-be ubiquitous Talapia as the generic whitefish of choice. This
is our future it seems.

Well, I don't have to consume any of these things, so I take pains
to avoid them.

Good with eggs with much fat to render. I am currently on a quest to
discover all the glory of chorizo.. trying 'em all. I wouldn't buy this
one again.

er, Airstreams are aluminum and aluminum doesn't rust.

On a practical level, you're right. Technically, aluminum will corrode
almost instantly on exposure to air. The thin layer of aluminum "rust"
retards the further oxidation of the metal quite effectively.

Monday, we bought a bottle of the Chile Habanero salsa at a Mexican
grocer, we bought the verde, the green one. We had it on eggs, it
tastes pretty good. It is hot, though.

I'm just reading through the seed catalogs that have been delivered. I
noticed a new seed for Habanero. It says it has all the flavors but only a
Scoville rating of 100. I like the flavor, but not the pain. I'm tempted
to grow it to see.

If you do that, please report how it went! The habanero flavor is unlike
other chiles, and it would be nice to have the option of a lesser heat along
with that flavor.

Will do. I would expect, though, that there will be a lot of nay-saying and
debate about the flavor. My experience is limited. I'm not sure that I get
a good flavor profile through all that burn.

The red one I have is hotter than the green one. Nice flavor though.
Both are colored artificially. Red #40 or Yellow #5. They could leave
off the coloring AFAIAC.

That reminds me of the stainless steel Weber grills. The frame is not
stainless. So in ten years you'll have a rust bucket with pretty
doors that cost double what it was worth.
