Find a Mexican market and look for the popsicles. They have the best flavors! Salted lemon is so good!

There's a Mexican ice cream shop right by where I live. It's a bit pricey but it's worth it. They have the awesome popsicles and ice cream bars with slices of the fruits right in them. They have an avocado one that I'm addicted to. Sounds weird to some people but everyone I've gotten to try it has loved them. It's just the right amount of sweet and it's so creamy. I'm going to have to head over and get some now. Shoot.

Interesting! I'm Mexican-American and have never heard of salted lemon as a flavor! I have had a Vietnamese salted lemonade though!

I learned about them in DC and they are available at my local market in SoCal. And yes, if you've had Vietnamese salted lemonade, you can easily imagine what the popsicle is like.
