New product Haul, or is it?

I went off to Central Market today to haul home some Hatch Chilies already roasted for the freezer because I love to have them all year long to use.  While there I stumbled upon something I had never tasted or seen before so I thought I would introduce you to it. I could not believe the amazing taste of these and I just had to share it with you!  Grab some if you find them.  Watch and see...wish this was taste-a-vision and smell-a-vision!
