We eat the cacique queso fresco, or is it ranchero. I have to go check the fridge. All the others smell like feet and I won't touch them with a 10 ft pole. You're close with your spelling. It's elote. And I know what you're talking about. One of my mom's Herbalife clients loves that elote with mayo and stuff. But she's 250-300 lbs and wonders why she hasn't lost any weight.

my mom taught us to fear the elote sellers. All I think when I see them is mayonnaise sitting out, spoiling in the hot sun all day. Takes my appetite away.
