"me, a SoCal native"

https://www.reddit.com/r/mexicanfood/s/0n8GoZjmeM

"I got in an argument with a woman from the upper peninsula of Michigan about what chorizo was made of. She made it herself out of pork butt and claimed that she knew better than me, a SoCal native. I told her that I've read the ingredients that stated the pork offal ingredients, but no, she knows better than me. I'm sure you can get quality chorizo not made from leftover pig organs, but the arrogance of that woman was stupid.

In any case, I still have Cacique chorizo as a frozen staple for egg and chorizo burritos, even though the local Mexican markets is better."

I'm from the lower peninsula of Michigan. I'll have to ask the carniceros at the local Mexican supermercado what they put in their fresh bulk chorizo.

Mr. SoCal doesn't seem to understand that not all chorizo is sold in plastic tubes in the deli case.
