NSD Game: Scrambled Words--Mexican food
 

9 women turned in perfect scores and the random number generator selected:
SCRAPPITOKI for 500 Cherry points

Second prize for the 15-24 words correct category is
LULUBELL for 250 Cherry points

No one scored less than 15 correct answers so I will be giving the final 100 points as random sprinkles among all participants. Thanks for playing and I hope you had your appetite stimulated and your brain twisted.

There were 2 tough words that puzzled quite a few. Tapatias is a chopped salad with a seasoned mayonnaise dressing and Chile Colorado was the ccooo illheard monster! All answers are listed below.

 

This game will close at midnight EST on Sunday, May 7, 2023.

Neat! I love word games!

[stateless]

Now I'm wanting Mexican for dinner - yum!

[wazzu94]

I'm so hungry now for mexican food...lol

[wimom]

A very tasty word scramble  Looks like fun!

[DrSonja]

Sorry for the typo--I fixed word #20 - it should be ccooo illheard

[SandyJay]

Some of these are tough!

Get a menu from a Mexican restaurant, that should help.

[Lisa Herring .]

Great challenge! Thank you! Had fun!

I eat a lot of mexican food and these are tough. If there are two words, are the letters in each word just for that word? ccooo illheard - first word only contains the first 5 letters, not make a two word name from all of the letters available? That is not well said, but hope you understand what I am asking.

Yes, the 2 word ones have the letters all mixed up between the 2 words. Makes it harder, doesn't it?

[wimom]

Sent you my answers!

oh darn found this to late to play

[teenybop61]

Just curious, what is TAPATIAS. I have never heard of it as a food by itself. I know Enchiladas Tapatias basically means Enchiladas from Guadalajara.

Our local restaurants serve a chopped salad tossed in a seasoned mayonnaise dressing. It is cold and crisp and ever so refreshing. Some others have said they haven't heard of it, so perhaps it is a regional thing. It sure is delicioso!

[scrappytoki]

Yay thank you so much! This was a really fun challenge. I think living in SoCal helped me a bit. 

[AnniePee]

That was a fun game!  Thank you!
