That girl selling pupusas from her car

Best pupusa in town, if you know what I mean…
Huh?
Get your mind out of the gutter! She’s only 16!
I had returned to my car after visiting Compare Foods for some groceries, and noticed a teenage girl offering something to shoppers from the trunk of her car. I was intrigued. I watched as more than 4 people returned to their vehicles with Styrofoam containers. I opened my window and waited for her to notice me noticing her… Somehow my curiosity led to an utter failure to consider how creepy it was for me to lure this girl half my age to my car, parked just a few spaces from hers. The lollipop in my hand couldn’t have made it look any better.
«Hola,» she greeted me.
«Hi. Whatcha got there?»
«It’s some food from El Salvador. My mother made it.»
«mmm… What’s it like? What’s it called?»
«Um… Do you know El Salvador food?»
«Nope.»
“It’s pupusas. It’s like bread, and cheese and the pork and cabbage and stuff and a sauce.”
«Ah… I’ve heard of pupusas. How much?»
«Five dollars. It’s four in the box.»
«I’ll have some!»
She walked back to her car and I congratulated myself on making no age-​inappropriate jokes involving the awesomely dirty-​sounding name of the dish. She returned with a box, I gave her five bucks and then I headed home.
These things were delicious. So much so that I made a habit of stopping by the shopping center after work at least once or twice per month in search of parking-​lot pupusa. Most times, she was there and I returned home happily to eat them — if I even made it out of the parking lot before eating. They’re served with a watery, vinegar-​based sauce that’s great.
A newish Salvadoran joint at FantaCity in Greensboro (
) makes a pupusa that’s nearly as good, but also serves a morro-​based horchata and cashew juice that you won’t find from the back of some chick’s car. But if you’re in Winston and have cash and a craving for a good pupusa, swing by here some time.
Maybe try to be a little less sketchy than I was.
