Sometimes I do fruit and yogurt instead of honey and yogurt myself - maybe the pears make up for the honey? <br />My favorite soft cheese is a local one (for me) called Mt Tam.

But I'm betting that you're getting better stuff there. I love grocery stores with wooden floors that squeak, but they are getting more difficult to come by. there's one not far from where I live and when I'm on a water run I try to stop there. it's a delightful experience. I so wish I were there with you. :)Ms. Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10775088530495290520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2813065790580462308.post-78852714209375954432011-06-14T12:43:39.650-06:002011-06-14T12:43:39.650-06:00I have to say, I'm intrigued by grocery stores...I have to say, I'm intrigued by grocery stores in different areas.

I don't have much luck with pears here (UK) - I always seem to get ones that are too hard or have too little flavour. Maybe I should explore them a bit more and pick one of each type they have at the grocery store and compare them. With Gruyere cheese too :-)Angie Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02119123733934337373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2813065790580462308.post-73377773825324080022011-06-14T00:40:29.956-06:002011-06-14T00:40:29.956-06:00I love crocery stores - I feel so inspired walking...I love crocery stores - I feel so inspired walking through, seeing all the good stuff displayed in great ways.

And that's a mystery about the yogurt, but it's probably related to the ingredients, cultures, and even the taste of milk in different countries. It's true, produce tastes different everywhere you go, because the land where it grows (or is milked) has different nutrients. That's my guess.i.ikedahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01658179846987510769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2813065790580462308.post-65638354402035729402011-06-13T19:46:58.864-06:002011-06-13T19:46:58.864-06:00I love grocery stores, but more than that, the spe...I love grocery stores, but more than that, the specialty food stores. Those places where you fine the unusual. I wish I could answer your question on the yogurt, but I can tell you that I absolutely cannot eat plain yogurt here in the States. Not even with honey. It has an odd taste to me. About as plain as I can go is vanilla, and I love that on fruit!<br /><br />Love this song!!<br /><br />I just thought of something. We do have yogurt here specifically labeled Swiss yogurt. I have never tried it, thinking it was just an added name to make it more interesting.

I like seeing different packaging for the same items we have in the states and toiletries.
