    I love La Cosecha. I went there many times when I was in Oaxaca City for 2 1/2 months this last winter! 😃
    I bought a small bottle of mezcal from that same vendor-- it was really good.

    Ahh, mezcal! The liquid that almost killed me on my 26th birthday! Talk about a lesson I'll never forget.

    Saludos chicos 👋
    Love seeing videos of places I have visited - and I love love OAXACA
    I walked around the area where this Mercado is at but I didn’t go there 🥺😩… wished I had known about the vegan options. I did find it challenging at some places we ate at but next time ☺️🥳

    What a cool market! So glad we watched this while eating because that food looked delicious. We have to try huitlacoche one day. Hopefully we can grow our own!

    • @SpanishandGo
      @SpanishandGo  2 роки тому +1

      That’d be awesome! I wonder how you could go about infecting the corn with the fungus… you guys definitely have to try it some day. It’s so good. 🤤

    Jim necisita dice "salud" a May. My amiga makes sure I follow correct etiquette in Mexico. Sorry that I couldn't go on your tour. Since I live in Texas, I prefer to go to Mexico during July and August. Don't travel to PVR this week unless you want me to make a scene. (or Ajijic on the following weeks)

    • @SpanishandGo
      @SpanishandGo  2 роки тому +2

      You're right, Brett! Usually we do say "salud." Sometimes having a camera pointed at you makes you forget such things. haha Thanks for watching! -Jim

    Great video, you two! I always learn a lot from your vlogs, and I like how you left some parts in Spanish. I tried huitlacoche in gorditas, in Bernal. I liked it; I thought it tasted like mushrooms. But, Jim, you're right, the online description of "corn smut" sounds really unpleasant!

    • @SpanishandGo
      @SpanishandGo  2 роки тому +1

      ¡Gracias, Adrian! Glad you liked it. Bernal is incredibly beautiful. Huitlacoche has definitely grown on me. I think the name and how it looks threw me off at first, but now I order it all the time when we’re in Mexico. ¡Un saludo! -Jim

    Love your videos as my hubby and I are learning Spanish and hope to live at least part time in a Spanish speaking country. I’ve been wondering: Were you both vegetarian or vegan when you met?

    • @SpanishandGo
      @SpanishandGo  Рік тому +1

      Thanks, Krista! That’s great. Which country do you have in mind?
      We both went vegetarian together. I ate very little meat when we met, but then we decided to cut out meat altogether soon after we met in person.

    Great video, Jim and May. Really enjoy your videos. You guys need "business Cards" with your channel info and directions to "subscribe" that you can give to some of the people you speak to. Everyone likes to see themselves on "tv" so you can grow your channel that way.

    Is Mezcal and Tequila the same thing???

  • @rodneyprince18
    @rodneyprince18 2 роки тому

    "Para todo mal, mezcal. Para todo bien, mezcal también" jajajaja.
    Around the 12:25 mark, the señorita in the tienda where you guys bought the mezcal, i couldn't quite make out what she said about how to drink mezcal. Was it "te toma a besitos", which I would assume means you sip it. And a "jalón" would be all at once.
    And I guess I'm a little out of touch, you guys are in Mexico now?

    Terrific! Very informative. Oaxaca has been on my visit list for several years...I use blue corn but have rarely seen it in MX.

    • @SpanishandGo

      Blue corn tortillas are our favorite! You definitely have to visit when you get a chance. Thanks for watching! -Jim
