Food adventure!

When I first was thinking of making this blog, long before I came up with a title, I had the idea that it would include things like trying the different pizzas from the bars in New Orleans. You know, just going out and trying foods that may have been a bad idea, because of the call of adventure. 

I did have a post that touched on food last fall, but this one is all about a quesadilla that almost defeated me. Being defeated by a single dish is not normal for me, and the only time it has happened that really sticks in my mind was a time I couldn't finish a cheeseburger when I lived in Michigan. I still don't know how that happened, I've had bigger burgers.  (That was over 15 years ago though.) 

One of the schools near where I work was hosting MEXI-Q, a Mexican food truck, and since I have a very flexible lunch break I headed over there. Now I could (should) have been responsible, reasonable, or logical with my order. Instead, I decided to order the most expensive thing on the menu, their $17 quesadilla. Three meats, two kinds of cheese, and more! I sort of blew my lunch budget for the week, but come on! 

This thing was huge. It was in two different boxes, and even looking at the menu, I still don't know what everything in the second box was! I think it was some kind of pineapple stuff, but I really don't know. I ate it with a fork, as well as the corn salsa. I don't know if I would order that again, it was almost too much for me. I had to skip dinner after eating it!  I guess I could have saved half and ate it later... 

If I come across this food truck again, I'll probably order something else. The Quesadilla Grande was great, but it was almost more than I could handle that day.
