Viva! Snackerz Tamarind Flavor Spoons Cucharazo De Tamarindo!!

Adam ate this on March 22, 2010

Hello snaksnak world! Adam here. Back from a lengthy hiatus of a trip to Los Angeles: the land of many snacks. I think that is actually the city’s official tagline. Crazy huh? Today I’m gonna get back into things with a little ditty I found in a Mexican Bakery somewhere in LA; some crazy spoon candy thingy that I don’t understand. If I remember correctly Cucharazo De Tamarindo translates roughly into: “Melted apricot rubber on a plastic spoon and sprinkled with paprika” I think. My Spanish is a little rusty though. These are one of those international snacks that us snack reviewers dream about getting our hands on. When you have to hype yourself up to try a snack so you can review it on your website you know you are living the dream.

First word after your first bite?  How about other words?

¡Ay, caramba!

Did you finish the whole thing?

Absolutely not. Not only was I terrified before I ate it, but my world imploded while eating it trying to pinpoint all the crazy flavors going on. But Ben ate like 3 while I nibbled on a quarter of one. Apparently he thinks they are the bees knees. He is apparently more well versed in worldly candy than I.

Would you buy it again?

Not for my personal consumption. But if ever I find myself in a small bakery in LA again I would definitely pick up a pack for Ben. Man that guy is weird.

Sum up your experience eating this snack in one word.

What….

Best place to eat to this snack?

Outside the Tacos Arizas truck in Echo Park after eating a delicious Carnitas Torta and some Mexican Coke.
