1926, Roberto Arlt, “Los trabajos y los días”, in El juguete rabioso:Husmeando pichinchas metíase entre fregonas y sirvientas a curiosear cosas que no debían interesarle, hacía de saludador arlequinesco, y en acercándose a los mostradores estañados de los pescadores examinaba las agallas de merluzas y pejerreyes, comía langostinos, y sin comprar tan siquiera un marisco, pasaba al puesto de las mondongueras, de allí al de los vendedores de gallinas, y antes de mercar nada, oliscaba la vitualla y manoseábala desconfiadamente.- (please add an English translation of this quotation)
