This one…does not. But I promise you it tastes just as good!

And paired with a red zinfandel, it will help ease all your World Cup sorrows.

So did we eat the mole plain? We could have, but we actually got creative with some leftover pad thai and made lettuce wraps.

Tune in Wednesday to hear the outcome, ‘From the Mouth of Webbie!’
