I like to pass through the epicerie du monde when I’m at any grocery store and I’m always perplexed at what I see. Apparently this is all America brings to the grocery world:
Let’s take it by shelf-by-shelf, shall we?
- Pancakes/Syrup (Aunt Jemima, to be exact)
- Pepperidge Farms cookies as far as the eye can see
- tiny, expensive jars of peanut butter
- marshmallows
- popcorn and Snyder’s Pretzels (both in various flavors)
- microwave popcorn
- assorted generic brand sauces (BBQ, seafood, cranberry and yellow mustard)
- Some Canadian brand beverages and crackers
- French’s Yellow Mustard
- Frank’s Hot Sauce
- Oreo icing in a Capri-Sun pack {gag}
Le sigh.
