Strange
Every now and then you eat something so strange that you spend days talking about it but can never properly convey to others just how odd it was. That happened to me last weekend when I went to have drinks at a Mexican restaurant, El Parador, and got an order of their jalapenos rellenos. According to the menu I could have them stuffed with anejo cheese or with “chunky peanut butter.” In disbelief I ordered them half with anejo and half with peanut butter, and sure enough they arrived and they were…fried jalapenos stuffed with chunky peanut butter. The chunky peanut butter even had some char on it from the grill.

Is this some kind of strange and traditional dish that I’ve never heard of before? Is it popular? Do people in Mexico enjoy it on a regular basis? These are mysteries that I don’t think I will ever be able to solve.
