Super Descuento Morales- Aisle 6

Like many other of the aisles, we have a specific purpose in frequenting Aisle 6-- well, two purposes, actually.

One: Many years ago, while traveling with good friends in France, we discovered the charms of "foreign" cleaning products. We think it was the laundry detergent named "Nu-clear" that clinched it. And come to think of it, we were staying near a town that had an atomic research institute, and our whites became EXTREMELY white after using it!
Ever since, as a lark, we have brought home a cleaning product for our friend, and she has become surprisingly addicted to Fabuloso.

Two: the real charm of Aisle 6 lies in its serious selection of spiritual candles. On numerous occasions we have had to try to seek out the least ornate from their ranks- no easy task- so we could have candlelight for dinner.


We had a good chuckle at the freedom from Political Correctness displayed by the Congo products. And we appreciated knowing that at certain times in their lives nervous litigants have felt comfort in lighting the candle designed to ease them through their court case.

After contemplating the image on this candle we were certainly curious about the intent of Rompe Brujo. Would this instantly clear a teen's room of suspicious odours when mom came knocking? Or does it contain some illicit compounds guaranteed to make you giggle & crave brownies?

A quick check with our trusty Spanish dictionary led us to conclude that, in fact, this candle was probably designed to release you from the voodoo spell. (Rompe= "it breaks"/ Brujo= "sorcerer" or "enchanting") Perhaps we should carry one home just in case...


Based on how few of these we've spotted on the streets of Vieques, Panama hats are not Morales' biggest seller!
