The economy is apparently finding new and novel ways to expose people to lead.

Today is National Pupusa Day
Popular worldwide, pupusas are made from corn masa filled with ingredients like cheese, beans & pork, and are often topped with pickled cabbage (curtido) and tomato sauce. They date back to the indigenous Pipil people (El Salvador), who ate them almost 3,000 years ago.
