Quote of the Day: El Salvadoran Sour Cream

This is why I sometimes hate foodies. Here is Tyler Cowen explaining how to top off your frozen corn tamales after steaming them for ten to twelve minutes:

Serve with El Salvadoran white sour cream on top or to the side. (Honduran or Guatemalan white sour cream will do in a pinch.)

In a pinch! God only knows what chaos might ensue if you tried Nicaraguan sour cream!

(I’m kidding. Honest. But still.)

HERE’S WHERE YOU COME IN

We’ll say it loud and clear: No one gets to tell Mother Jones what to publish or not publish, because no one owns our fiercely independent newsroom. But that also means we need to directly raise the resources it takes to keep our journalism alive. There’s only one way for that to happen, and it’s readers like you stepping up. Please help with a donation today if you can—even a few bucks will make a real difference. A monthly gift would be incredible.
