Goya products are finally easier to find where I live. I use to bring them home from S. Fla. They are wonderful!
When I was up in MI, I missed decent BBQ so much that I taught myself how to make it at home. The town I lived it, if you said you were going to have BBQ, your neighbors automatically asked what kind of steaks were you cooking, and how many hotdogs and hamburgers you were going to cook.
"ladies" at the club were so straight-laced that they told the GM that "real ladies shouldn't have to touch shrimp before they eat it." And that is a quote! Sadly, we can't do anything with head-on shrimp anymore.

YES!!! I was in Vermont, of all places, and my brother turned me on to this great marinade (mojillo or something like that--bitter orange, and the usual suspects in a marinade). I live in the SF Bay Area and you would think that this would be easily available--not so. I went to Philly and they had it. I wrapped up a few bottles and put in my luggage (risky, I know, but I LOVE this stuff). Other than getting the stank eye from security, it survived the 3K mile journey just fine.Goya products.
