We have Dollar Tree stores in this area (SF Bay) that sell some interesting
food items. In the ethnic area I've found things like chili dried pineapple
chunks, chili and lime dry roasted lima beans and garbanzo beans, chili
flavor Japanese peanuts, and honey roasted soy nuts. All make yummy snacks,
and I'd never seen them before. I need to get out more.

When I was in Japan I virtually lived in their convenience stores.
Snacker's paradise. So clean, well-lit, well-stocked, and tasty. I was
partial to the chicken teriyaki potato chips (mouth still waters to
this day thinking about them), and a particular brand of coffee-milk.
1L of heaven.

hmm, 480kcal/liter. Not too bad. . . bet it tastes *great* with my
protein powder...

Man, Japan kicked a.s. I gained ~20lbs over 8yrs there, but 30lbs over
2 years here, with substantially the same eating habits.

One thing's for sure, if the current president is somehow returned to
office I'm on the next flight back...
