Salitos

Salitos, are actually dried prunes that literally are salted and then salted again. When we were kids we used to get a lemon or an orange and cut it in half and shove the salito inside of it. Then spend hours destroying our teeth by licking the lemon or orange with the salito inside. Sometimes my Mom would cut random fruit slices like pineapple oranges lemons apples even and put the salito in there with it and let it absorb all of the different flavors. I don’t know who came up with the idea of this but every time I go back home to Arizona I find a place that sells them just so I can do this.
