Me too, I love the mercado. I thought the chapulines tasted like pickles!

Something, that I enjoy very much are squash blossoms or flor de calabaza. These are soooo good.
Those are awesome! I had them in a very tasty soup at La Olla, a really good restaurant in Oaxaca. I also had pollo estufado (I think that's the spelling) that was out of this world!!
