Dried chiles at C-Town

 I'm back from Mexico City. I am going to start blogging about my grocery stores there too because I go to Sumesa, Chedraui, Tiendas 3B, and Walmart a lot. I got Tequila Cazadores marked down from 530 pesos to 130.

Anyway, this is about Brooklyn still. The last two times I bought dried chiles at C-Town, the cashiers actually asked me which ones they were instead of just guessing. That's an improvement. Also C-Town has chiles anchos again ($8.99/lb) which is good. I got arbol ($7.99/lb) the other day and guajillo ($6.99/lb) today.

Produce Prices Are High

 It's January, so of course. But I was just at To The World Farm and the guy kept telling the woman the price of things. which is his job, but it was like "this is super expensive right now" and "are you sure you want escarole and didn't mean to grab leaf lettuce by mistake? this costs so much."

Good thing I'm getting into dried chili peppers. They are good even in January.
