No, thanks. Whenever there's something Asian that I decide I can't live without, my stepdaughter-in-law is only an e-mail away, and they live near Boston, Mass, which has a big Chinatown; a week later, it's here :)
And now, *we* - the teeny-tiny Lexington - are going to have International Foods store; it opens on Saturday... I went there today (somewhat misled by the local weekly paper), and they let me browse as they were stocking, pricing, cementing the last tiles in place... I saw a lot of American staples I pass by in my grocery stores, and I could find nothing to match the Polish deli in San Francisco (so DS will have to lug the stuff come Christmas <g>) but I *did* find a half-shelf worth of Dalfour (I think that's the spelling?), French-made, jams/jellies/preserves... Including their orange, which had me whooping out loud in glee. It's the *only* orange marmalade I've ever seen where the list of ingredients doesn't start with "sugar"... In fact, "sugar" doesn't even *figure* <g> And the thing is *out of this world*, even for someone like me who doesn't care much about sweets. I carted one jar all the way from Poland to the Czech Republic, to the States, but it's been long gone, and I'll be happy to re-acquaint myself with it, without having to go through the Internet
