WEIRD looking, WEIRD sounding, but some of the tastiest stuff I've ever eaten.

Posole is delicious! I'm sad that I moved so far away from New Mexico now. Chili, mmm. The food in D.C. just tastes bland after growing up in NM. New Mexican is so far from real Mexican food, it's crazy. New Mexican food is definitely unique, but delicious!
That posole sounds very different than true posole though. It sounds like an Anglocised (read: white) version made for tourists in Santa Fe. Still, with posole, pork, and chili in it, how could you go wrong?
sorry if this was a threadjack.
