Coalition Against False Fajitas
JOIN THE COALITION at
THE FAJITA COOKOFF
PALMFEST 2008 at New Convention Center
McAllen, TX – The Coalition Against False Fajitas – aka C.A.F.F., whose members are referred to as Mad CAFFs. Because of the profilaration of false fajitas, (i.e.: chicken fajitas, pork, shrimp, and others) the coalition was formed to help stamp out that which is not a true beef skirt.
Mad CAFF’s will be in full force at the 31st year running of Granddaddy of them ALL – THE FAJITA COOKOFF. The Coalition was first formed in the mid 1980′s to help stamp out that which is not a true fajita. " The popularity of the fajita is what cased this problem," said Chrisopher Julian, Producer of THE FAJITA COOKOFF and Founder of the Coalition."Restaurants and food vendors wanted to capitalize on it’s popularity and all of a sudden anything and everything that could be cut into strips and put in a tortilla is a fajita, and that’s wrong!" concluded Julian.
The Spanish word faja means sash or girdle. Hence, the fajita is the girdle around the stomach of the steer. The most popular aberration is the chicken fajita. And we all know that chickens don’t have or wear girdles. But it has gotten so bad some meat markets in South Texas are selling sirloin fajitas. Now that is real wrong.
Cooking teams that are entered in THE FAJITA COOKOFF beware. The offical Fajita Marshall, Richard Womeldorf, and the highly experienced panel of judges will be closely inspecting all entries and will disqualify that which is not a true fajita.
You may join the Coalition Against False Fajitas and become a MAD CAFF by signing the petiitons at THE FAJITA COOKOFF this year at various locations on the grounds. The 2007 McAllen Palmfest will be held this year at the NEW McALLEN CIVIC CENTER at the corner of Ware Road and Expressway 83 in McAllen, Tx. Mark your calanders Saturday October 6th, 2007 and Sunday October 7th, 2007
