But if you go soon to a half-dozen Albertsons in the Las Vegas Valley’s Hispanic neighborhoods you’ll find 100,000 pamphlets titled “Camino Magico,” or the “Magical Path” — chock-full of “traditional” Latin American foods such as Silk brand soy milk, Knorr brand chicken bouillon cubes, Mission brand tortillas, Goya brand spices … and Splenda!
The pamphlet, according to Oldways, the Boston group that produced it, is “dedicated to improving Latino health through traditional foods and lifestyles.” Oldways says it is sending one-tenth of the pamphlets it is distributing nationwide to the valley because of the region’s large Hispanic population, estimated at more than 450,000.”*
