There's these pineapple ginger candies in the European section of the grocery store that are 1.39 a bag and saved me during my recent bout of laryngitis.
Also their tea section is much better and quite inexpensive.
You're from America? It's funny if you have an European section in the supermarket since there are American shelves in supermarkets in many European countries. They typically stock mac n cheese, pop-tarts, jello and that kind of stuff.
No, Canada. My city has a large Eastern European population, and I mostly go to a Polish grocery store anyway, so it's.always fun to guess what the mystery pickled vegetables are!
I'm a Canadian living in Germany, and I really wish there was a Canadian section in the grocery store. Mostly for Ketchup and All-Dressed chips.
I'm US but grew up near the boarder (and now don't)... I miss my CTV and Mr.Bigs... also Canada figured out how to keep making solid ass rock music.
If you haven't watched Letterkenny it's on Hulu and you will die, it's so Canadian.
I love letterkenny! I also just binged corner gas lol
Also amazing!
Oh wow I always forget those are only here. I think the ketchup ones are in the US now.
The stores around me in the US have a few different sections categorized like that. There's usually an "Asian" and "Latin" section, but I see the European one often as well
My wife wanted to try the famous pop-tarts for fun. We found them in a supermarket in France. We each took a bite, looked at each other wondering if it was real food, and threw everything in the trash. It should be forbidden.
Did you...toast them before eating them?

Homemade pop tarts are really nice so if you see those try them.
I recently bought masala ginger chai from the Indian section, and oh my goodness, I will never drink regular tea again!
Right? You don't realize what white people tea you've been drinking until you venture out.
I'm super into this Ukrainian tea, the flavor is called Alpine Herbs, and another one is Ice Moss, which is actually some kind of algae and makes the palest tea I've ever had.
