Torta Cubana
I don't think of myself as a timid eater, but I just tried eating something relatively benign after considering it for at least ten years (ever since Super Burrito came to St. Johns), and that is the torta.
Somehow, a sandwich with beans on it just didn't appeal to me, but you'd think that in those ten years, I would have at least tried one. But somehow I didn't. Then in Tucson, I had a Mexican hotdog, which had beans AND bacon on it. And a couple weeks ago, I was very intrigued by Tony's torta order. This finally led me to try one myself today.
The totra in question was a cubana, which includes (but is not limited to):
- ham
- hotdogs
- chorizo
- avacado
- mayonaise
- onions
- tomato
- a couple whisps of lettuce
Holy cow. Now that's a sandwich. I think I've found my new favorite food to fill me with self-loathing for having eaten it.
