When I lived in Philadelphia there was a vendor just outside my office door - he served the world's most divine Falafel Pockets! Of the many foods I miss from home, that one's near the top of the list!
Hmmmmmmmmm ... now you've got me thinking ...

One year - late November I believe it was - I saw something similar! It was making it's way across Rt. 140 in Belmont, having just consumed a large quantity of fermented fallen apples in the nearby orchard. Suffice it to say the poor dear was struggling mightily, I was laughing so hard I had to pull off the road!
