  Well, I guess for now we just wait until 2011, and then the Kleenex boycott can end. It'll be here before we know it. Progess, not perfection, is probably the best we can hope for. I hope the forests can withstand it until then.

  mmm tlacoyos!

  Tom, where in the city were you? From your description you could have been anywhere in Mexico DF (Ben & Jerry's, Starbucks, Walmart, Walmart, Walmart aaaugh!) I'd love to swing by that particular stand and try their tlacoyos!!

  I am temporarily living in Mexico City, and I have had to look far and wide to find ways to support the locals as much as possible when it comes to food and groceries. Fortunately I've found an organic farming co-op (La Granja Organica) which will deliver organically grown veggies and farm items to homes throughout the city. Also there's a great little chain of grocers called The Green Corner which carries more of this local produce as well as a fair selection of other organic and sustainably produced grocery items, many from small businesses throughout Mexico. Unfortuantely, when I shop there I'm usually the only person there. All of my Mexican neighbors can't keep themselves out of Walmart's Superama. Ay caramba!  

  Thanks for the great report about things happening in my neck of the woods!On Notes on a recent trip to Mexico posted 1 year, 2 months ago 8 Responses
