Although the supermarkets in Managua are full of all kinds of fresh and prepared foods, just like in the USA, in the mercados you can purchase fresh vegetables, fruit, tortillas, meat, dairy products and eggs as well. When I saw these wonderfully wrapped eggs being sold by an elderly peasant woman, I recognized them as not only food, but as a fabulous, practical and beautiful packaging job! They are wrapped in banana leaves, so the packaging is even recyclable!
