Scott and Mary Fitzwater know your agony. As they tell it: “Once upon a time, when we were young and foolish, my wife and I were coaxed from New Mexico with promises of riches if I would accept a job transfer. We drank the Koolaide. I took their money. We called the moving van. We soon wished we hadn't. We wandered lost and alone in the wilderness of the Lone Star State like strangers in a strange land. We found ourselves on a constant and fruitless search for REAL green chile....We were diligent. We were shown a lot of ‘peppers’ but all to no avail.
Alas, we called the moving vans back again, and beat feet back to this beautiful Land of Enchantment, vowing to ourselves there had to be a way to get real green chile, both fresh and frozen, to those poor unfortunate New Mexicans in exile suffering from Green Chile withdrawl. And verily, verily I say unto you that our little locally owned and operated business, The UPS Store at Paseo and Wyoming is now a major shipper of REAL NEW MEXICO green chile, both fresh and frozen. Give the gift of New Mexico. We are only a phone call away. Our green chile hotline is 505-858-1600. Mild? Medium? Hot? Extra hot? Fresh or frozen?
