I hope she doesn't see the soyballs and spaghetti

An elementary school friend of mine, Richard Van Sant, now lives in Colorado. One day when he was visiting the Mountain Sun Pub & Brewery in Boulder, he ran across a comment card that he shared with his friends on Facebook.

If you look on the back of the Mountain Sun menu, you will see this entry:

SALSA & CHIPS
fresh salsa with blue and yellow corn chips ....... $3.25


This menu entry prompted the comment card from an unknown diner. My friend shared the card, part of which read as follows:

...we'd love it if you could change the menu to read "chips and salsa" instead of "salsa and chips." It is just really stressful to have to invert something that comes so naturally....

All of us who are Richard's Facebook friends loved the use of the word "stressful." During a time in which Congresswomen are being shot at and people are being snowed in, the inversion of "salsa and chips" does not seem to be the most critical issue that we must face.

I bet that it's really good salsa.

And presumably the Boulder types would like this salsa and chips recipe, vegan that it is.
