Edible Screen Printing: 1 Dollar

Edible Screen Printed Tortilla used for a Cheese Quesadilla
Cost: Practically Free
Location: Mission District, SF

March 31 was Cesar Chavez Day. Lots of activist and local school and community set up shop in the Mission District of SF to celebrate the birthday of this labor activist. The Farm Workers Union was handing out a print maker's dream (or worst nightmare???): cheese melted in between tortilla's that the union members were screen printing on! I think the "ink" was made with special food coloring.

Tacos in the Mission: El Toro

El Toro: Mission District, San Francisco
1.85 USD / taco

Every neighborhood in San Francisco has a signature food. The Mission District is noted for amazing Mexican food. Lucky for me, Mexican food is always very affordable, filling, and sometimes even healthy! El Toro is a famous taqueria located at 17th and Valencia. At a buck eighty-five per taco you can't get much better. They also have a great salsa bar (you can see the salsas I chose in the upper right hand corner of the photo) and the side of guacamole I bought was very delicious and super fresh. In the picture above we have carnitas, al pastor, and carne asada meats.
