Sometimes where you live determines what is available. This is true with certain food items. Potato chips are available in Malawi, in some of the strangest flavors. To name a few: biltong, fried chicken, peri peri, chutney, and tomato. You can not buy plain corn chips in Malawi.
When you grow up eating Fritos or Doritos then live in a place where they are not available, well, it is difficult! It has been 15 months since I have tasted a regular Frito. There are times that it seems that I can taste them, but I realize it is just my imagination.
All of this changed yesterday when I unloaded a container full of work equipment from the United States. My friend, Bill Moore, put some Fritos on the container for me. The next time you eat Fritos I hope you enjoy as much as I did today!
You just can't imagine how good something is when you haven't had it in 15 months!
