Lubbock Grandfather Sells Treats and Eats to Help Out Grandkids

Clemente does not have any social media and had no hint he was so popular on Facebook. We asked why he was out selling candied apples and Clemente let us know that he was raising his grandkids and was not able to work however did get disability assistance.
Undoubtedly raising kids isn't low-cost so Clemente and his wife, and in some cases grandkids, make the apples as a method to get a little extra money to take the kids to eat, spend for gas to take them anywhere, and pay for anything that they may require however are also currently attempting to save up for hearing aids for his daughter who is also handicapped.
Clemente does not simply make apples but likewise makes enchiladas, rice, beans, menudo (with or without patitas), caldo and of course tamales. Clemente did let us know that his tamales & #xA 0; travel far and that many people will buy them in bulk to take with them on journeys to share with loved ones. With how popular his food is some individuals have asked why not open a restaurant but with his current income he is not able to do that and due to the fact that he is handicapped.
Naturally we have to talk about the tamales considering that it is the season and you can get a few various kinds such as pork shoulder, beans and cheese, chicken and beans, chicken and cheese and even brisket tamales. I will need to attempt those brisket tamales as soon as possible! Since Clemente does not have social networks you can be fortunate and discover him randomly however you can typically discover him at the bingo halls, 50th and University, 15th and Avenue Q, or on North University near McDonalds and Amigo''s.
