Welcome back. It's time for a solution to the most recent Sunday Puzzle from NPR:
This week's challenge comes from listener Julia Lewis, of Fort Collins, Colo. Take the name of a major American city. Hidden inside it in consecutive letters is the name of a Japanese food. Remove that. The remaining letters can be rearranged to to spell some Mexican foods. Name the city and the foods.
I don't have much to add to the approach I discussed in my preview post, so I'll just link you back to that post, and to my solver script, annotated with comments and posted to the GitHub repo for this blog.
Oh yeah, I have the solution, too, if you just want to see that. Spoiler alert! Scroll down for my solution.
