It needs to be an open forum and please let everyone have a voice. We are a community and we should all be allowed to talk freely.

I don't know how Banamex is in other cities. But in Chapala its the worst bank with only one ATM machine and about half the time its "fuera de servicio."
-
The creamery behind the Chapala Mercado also sells pork arrechera a kilo for 112 pesos. It is super delicious and tender, not overly salted. Its the same people that run Gourmet Garage so I am sure they sell it there too.

You could always add the free Traite app on your phone. They deliver food to your house from a large variety of restaurants. It is similar to Uber Eats.

I can understand him not answering the phone if he is up under a sink somewhere. But I cannot understand why he doesn't answer his whatsapp messages. Heck, he could do that at night after he's got home and relaxed awhile. Its important that he answers the messages from his customer base. I have already sent him two messages two weeks apart and they are still unread and unanswered.
-
I have been calling him for days and still answer. I've even tried to message him on Whatsapp to no avail.

You can always try asking the Totalplay guys that hang out at Walmart by the door as you go out, handing out brochures.

And the Reserve is where?

Jugo is straight up juice that is squeezed from the fruit. While nectar has added water and often times added sugar to compensate for the watery taste.

If you have a blender or a food processor you could grind it yourself, it would be cheaper that way. If you want to spend the extra money for the covenience check at Super Lake.

The one in Chapala is called Pet Avenue.

Just out of curiosity, I am far from being a potato connoisseur but the pototoes called dirty potatoes are they much different than the regular washed white potatoes? The ladies in the fruterías all insist that they are better for frying. Since they are slightly more expensive, are they worth the extra price or are they basically the same as the washed potatoes? What is you guy's opinions.

Don't they still sell it at Dildorias in Ajijic?

I don't think you need a vpn to access youtube videos unless you are in China, Iran or other countries that restrict your freedom.

Yeah I have heard about the yellow black widow before. In Chapala they have what they call the Capulina spider and the Viuda Negra. The way I understand the difference between the two is that the Capulina is larger. In Chapala they don't always have the perfect drawn hour glass. Often times it is just a red dot or no red dot at all. You have to go by their shape usually. They are pretty common around these parts in the summer. The good news is that generally they are not very agressive and avoid biting humans unless overly threatened.
What other venemous spiders do we have in the Chapala area and do we also have Brown Recluse?
-
I didn't even know we had 304 pharmacies in Chapala.

I've always been told to be weary of buying medicine from Farmacía Similares because even though you might save money their recipes are not exactly the same as the original or even generics. So be careful.

Isn't there a stone dealer next to the furniture tent which is next to Tobolandia?

In order to not confuse non-Spanish speakers who might try to translate "basulero", a garbage collector or trash man as we used to call them is a basurero.
We put $400 in their envelope and we regularly run smaller propinas out throughout the year, along with coco sueros, the favorite among all of our workers.
Sorry I must of just skipped your correction. 😄
-
Not trying to be nitpicky but the correct word is basurero from the Spanish word for trash basura.
And 500 pesos per truck sounds good. That is what we give.

The worst things about the face masks are having to see so many people wearing them and having to try to communicate with them through their muffled voices and lack of facial expressions. I am just glad I am in Chapala and not in some other world locations. Austria or Australia to name a few.

I have seen couliflower rice at Superlake and once at Walmart. México is the land of meat. Just don't eat the tortillas. They do sell the low carb green cactus tostadas at Gourmet Garage. When we were doing keto we bought a lot of those and ate a lot of cheap avocados. Meat, eggs, bacon is cheap and plentiful around here. We even ordered monk fruit off Amazon. Not cheap but worth it. We also ate lots if greens like kale, swiss chard and spinach. Which are all very easy to grow in your back yard.

The bone thing is mostly with small cooked bones like chicken and such that can easily splinter and caught in their throats or stomaches. As for avocados our 4 little doggies have been eating avocados off our avocado tree for the past 10 years without any notable problems.
YAY MODS!!!!!

Natasha I think you misunderstoon what I was trying to say. Remember I commented after Virgo Lady. I don't have any problem at all with the different sections. It makes sense to me as long as everyone is allowed to exercise their voice. There are certain members of this forum that are all in favor of censorship if it differs with what Fauci says and I am against censoring people. Let everyone speak freely is all I meant.
