tomgates Posted January 26, 2019 Report Share Posted January 26, 2019 We were recently at Lupe's BBQ in Provencia, Guadalajara and with my meal came tater tots. About fell off my chair. Begs the question, how did they get them and where could I get some more. Refrain from going off topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiny Posted January 27, 2019 Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 I would bet they are similar to the french fries I get from my butcher. The french fries are frozen and weigh 2.5 kg. I think there have to be something like restaurant supply companies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suegarn Posted January 28, 2019 Report Share Posted January 28, 2019 I would love to find frozen cubed hash browns (not the shredded potato type). I've never seen them anywhere in Lakeside! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAHAHA What harm in doing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen them anywhere in Lakeside! That gives me an idea to try. Take frozen french fries and cut them up into cubes. Fry them with onion and seasoning. There you go, cubed hash browns.

Minimal samples (almost none free) were available--including coffee machine salespeople--and the few products that were on display and available for purchase were a fabulous cheese company from France (that only sells in CDMX and won't deliver Lakeside by any means, but we bought some to take home), a few bread/rolls purveyors, a few beer and wine companies and equally as few jarred salsas/jellies, and a chocolatier. It's definitely not promoted for the home consumer: those coffee machines start around $70,000. About 1/3 of the expo had exhibitor booths. It was an interesting few hours but by early afternoon we were off, calling around for a lunch reservation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomgates Posted February 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 Next time we stay at the Aloft Hotel, I will go to Lupe's and ask to see the packaging and where they got them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattoleriver Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 If you search hard enough you will find them on this site. Now, getting them is a different problem. You do need thirty pounds, right? http://www.mccainfoodservice.com.mx/foodservice/ (Productos> Papas a la Francesa> Descarga fotos de productos> scroll to pg 15.)
