Get Dispensed: The Pez Podcast – Ep 16 – Pez in Mexico: A Collector’s Tale with Luis Vargas

 

This week on Get Dispensed: The Pez Podcast, we're heading “south of the border” to explore the world of Pez collecting in beautiful Mexico! Greg—aka the Down Under Pez Hunter—is joined by passionate Mexican collector Luis Vargas, who shares how Pez first popped into his life, what collecting looks like in Mexico, and why it’s not just about candy dispensers—it’s about creating community, culture, and creativity.

 

From favourite finds and dream dispensers to the cost of Pez and the rules of advertising in Mexico to whether they’re part of pop culture, Luis answers 12 Pez Pack Questions that unwrap the collector inside. You’ll hear how the Mexican Pez scene compares to other countries and get some great advice if you’re just starting your own Pez journey.

 

🌶️ Plus, Luis dishes up a delicious local food recommendation that’ll make your mouth water.
