Is there something not available for purchase in your area that is available in other parts of the country?

Grits for one. When we lived in Mississippi grits were common and you could buy Quaker Instant Grits in the grocery store.

Snowmobiles - no snow unless you want to drive to the mountains.

White Castle hamburgers - would love to have one here. You can buy them frozen in the store, but not the same..

Vienna hot dogs, Italian beef sandwiches - miss them too. I think hot dogs are illegal in California unless they're made with turkey.

Ferrets - ferrets are illegal in Cali, piranhas too.

Sleds, snow suits, snow shovels

Adam's NoStir Peanut Butter. We could get it in Montana but I haven't been able to find it here in New Hampshire.

Anne drinks this gross soda called Sun Drop. They don't have it here.

Yes, of course. Local products!!

I'm sure there is. Nothing I can think of, though.

Cell phones and books for sale

Not that I know of.

I am not sure but I think that i have seen grits on the store shelf here in Colorado and we have plenty of
snowmobiles here in Colorado

You can look this up on the internet to see what stores carry this in your area

Yes, which is why I value the Internet so I can order 'em online. For example, if I lived in Portugal, Brazil or maybe some of the East Coast states like Mass. and New Jersey, I could get more of the kind of music I like.

> Sleds, snow suits, snow shovels

hee hee I will send you some all the way from Colorado

I recently bought some grits at Trader Joe's in a rolled package. Do you have a Trader Joe's near you?

Yes. There are many things not avialable here.

It was 75 degrees here today. Nice, but I wish we'd get snow once in a blue moon.

75 sounds kind of nice to run away from all this cold weather we are getting , and if lucky we do get indian summers
up here all of a sudden 50 deg outside the snow is melting away only to have it snow again
Wish I could send you the snow your way and just direct it in your direction
sometimes we get so much snow there is no place to put the snow any longer like what are we going to do??

I live in rural Queensland of course.

Better chocolate.

I'll send you as much as you would like, wait how much do you want it I meant I'll sell you as much as you want.

Probably.

Oh yeah, earlier this year when I was getting things for Minnesota, I needed a snow-shovel. I thought with all the people around here who have houses in Tahoe, I'd be able to find one somewhere, but there were none to be found.

Yes, in Modesto.

Well check it out and maybe you can find it there.

Yes! I'm quite sure there is... um... they mentioned a brand of mustard once that I'd never heard of...
um... My wife's brother once brought home Ale-8-One, we don't have that here.
We don't have any Waffle Houses here. I know, that's not a something you can purchase.

yes...wisconsin cheese

I think hot dogs are illegal in California unless they're made with turkey.

or tofu....

Unfortunately yes! I live in a "Nothingville"!

When a new product is released, we're one of the last places in the nation to get them--it seems.

I'm sure there is, but nothing that I know of.

Aw... damn... I was trying to come up with some food that is regional to the midwest to send for Secret Santa.... figured you'd appreciate that.
I wish I'd seeen this... I'd have sent you some veenie weenies (vienna sausages).

Plochman's! Yum. I don't buy anything else.

Which of their mustards do you prefer, I will buy a case!

Just the regular yellow kid kind.

I've never tried the others...

This is just part of your plot to give me guilt for liking things you won't!!!

lol, you're so paranoid!

But, yes, you caught me. *shame*

I was about to say that I was planning to eat this mustard while watching Rat Race...

Not in this country but in Sweden...Hashish!

Nothing springs to mind - it's not a big country! There are things available for purchase here that are available for free on the NHS elsewhere though...
