As I was dropping off stuff to the Salvation Army, I spied this little nugget across the street…read more Drive thru michelada? Too good to be true. And indeed it was. You can't really drive through to get a michelada with beer inside... but you can drive through to get a Clamato Preparado with a beer ON the side. So I bought one of those suckers ($8?) and was about to drive off when something caught my eye. Smirnoff Preparada. What the heck? Turns out an SP is a 20 oz smirnoff icce, with gummy bears, chamoy and chile inside the beverage. Then on TOP of the beverage, more gummy bears, chamoy and chile. Obviously I had to get one. It tasted like sh... nothing good but the gummy bear chamoy concoction on top was delicious. All of these things are an acquired taste of course so feel free to experience this madness on your own.

Tex Best is a very nice travel stop. They have fuel, hot…read morefood, cold drinks, coffee, and other convenience store items. There is even deer corn for hunters. They have fuel for both cars and 18 wheelers. I was hungry, so I ordered two tacos for $8 and some change. They were pretty good. They also have fried chicken, fried "burritos", chimichangas, hamburgers, pizza and more. The soda fountain includes several flavors of "aguas frescas" but are artificially flavored, the iced tea is fresh brewed. Bathrooms are clean and nice. The fuel prices are about 20 cents higher than in town. At least today. Overall, it's a nice place to stop for good food choices and road trip supplies.

This after having…read morebeen told by a co-worker about how he was ready for the day after having a "Q Taco" from Stripes. Stripes is convenience store where some of its locations have the Laredo Taco Company is located. Amusingly entertained by my co-worker's statement, I went to a Stripes in my area and decided to seel out the "Q Taco", unfortunately I did not see it in the menu so I instead went for a ham and cheese taco and gran tocino taco. Again, I'm not an expert on what makes a good taco, but I can tell you they were tasty and make for a fast greasy breakfast on the go.
