Anyway, we stopped at a roadside vendor on the way out of town (our friend was driving, her 2 kids with us), and she bought some baguettes of bread... So of course Dad and I have never bought anything at a roadside vendor. After we crossed the bridge the kids were hungry so she pulled up to another roadside vendor and said let's eat here. She is Cambodian ... I carried the baguettes from the car and she went to the counter and bought a couple of things, and said to grab a drink from the vendors orange crate thing. Dad said he was fine. I was really thirsty.
They were can drinks.

That can't be bad...I chose a peach something...So we began to eat. This really was a stretch for dad to even sit there. Our friend had bought some pineapple jam and a can of sweetened condensed milk. MY NEW FAVORITE THING TO EAT NOW is a fresh baguette of bread torn in the middle, filled with sweetened condensed milk.!!!!! Really, you all need to try it, maybe you all have and I am the one who didn't know... so then I took a sip of my drink. It tasted great. Then another...and yikes!!! What came out of the can into my mouth? It had to be a worm, I instinctively spit it out and choked and gagged, trying not to freak the kids out. Then I looked in my napkin and in my drink, and it was full of peaches...little slimey peaches. I know you all would have thought the same thing given these circumstances....So the drink was actually very delicious once I recognized the peaches, haha...And Dad did eat jam on the baguette, even using a knife from the vendor to spread the jam...yes, stressing the whole time.
