Congratulations to the New Times reader who goes by the handle Eleanor, you are the proud winner of this week's New Times You Write the Caption contest.

On Friday, we asked readers to provide what they think would be an appropriate caption for the above photo. We picked the five best reader captions and put it to a vote.

See all the entries here.

Are there really Mexicans in this pizza?

Thanks to everyone who played, and congrats again to Eleanor -- in honor of the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office, we've decided to add to the grand prize of a firm handshake and a glass of lukewarm Phoenix municipal tap water.

In addition to the handshake and the glass of filthy water, we will provide Eleanor with a "meal of [her] choice" (we're going with the MCSO's definition of "meal of [her] choice" -- which really means any meal that can be purchased at a drive-thru).

To retrieve your prize, send an email to [email protected].
