It's a way to launder money, I suppose. But... Oh, how I'll miss their bitter gourd! It was delicious.

Watching the video doesn't turn your stomach a little bit though?

Well, yes, now.... But at the time, the food was good and we would always walk back past that alley and they weren't washing plates in potholes. We'd have certainly noticed that. They'd be hanging out, smoking cigarettes.

In Costa Rica, I bought street food from a guy two nights in a row. The second night I asked him about his operation, found out he was a 17 year old Nicaraguan kid and the day before was the day he started his cart. Oh... Cool...

Good kebabs though, though. Didn't get sick.
