Milk until opened doesn't need refridgeration here. But that doesn't mean I want to pick some up outside the super that has been sitting out in the 88+ sun all day. Would you? Since the milk tastes different here, our kids(me included) don't want to drink it. Butter is not common to find and cheese if you are lucky to find it is mostly processed. Luckily they have many flavors of yogurt drink juice boxes; strawberry, blueberry, green apple and sour. I prefer regular yogurts in cool flavor combos like bean and blackberry, peach and aloe, coconut and mikan. Finding a bean in my yogurt still gives me the creeps. And I've yet to try the blueberry yam combo.
They still deliver milk or yogurt milk door to door. Every once in a while we see their delivery cart downstairs and milk in glass jars sitting outside my neighbors door.
Been a bit more adventurous and eating out more. Got a super spicy noodle bowl that put my mouth on fire, so I just ate the veggie side dish and drink. They like to eat a lot of veggies that to me should never be heated. Like lettuce and cucumber. The warm smell of these two is just wrong and makes me sick. I got fried starch with garlic dipping sauce. I love the sauce that the cube starch comes in and dip everything I get at this restaurant in it. Their menu is a clipboard with a check list of foods(think sushi lists). The first time we were here I took a page and made note of which dishes I liked.
Some more fashion trends: sock nylons. While a good thought when wearing dress shoes with pants. Many old people wear it(it makes them look like their skin is falling off) instead of real socks, and now I see all ages embrace wearing them with their shorts or skirts. Everything is bedazzled for both sexes. This one I don't mind, but now I think I need a bedazzler when I get home!
The streets are our garbage bin. I haven't seen any dumpsters since I've been here, garbage carts make the rounds and pick up trash daily. I have seen one 3 wall garbage hut while riding the bus. The garbage over floweth into the streets. Part of the problem is garbage pickers, picking through it for recyclables to get money.
They are redoing the inside of a restaurant across the street and putting all their garbage on the sidewalk for all to step. Insulation laying there out in the open on a windy day, dumped out pails of nails and shards of broken tiles and glass.
Yeah, I found shoes to fit me!
They don't cover up the opeing when riding through the dusty streets. Just don't think about this, especially when you eat their salty crepe sandwich wraps.
