What’s going on! I have not posted anything about what kind of groceries I buy in Japan. Maybe because I am still a little lost in the grocery store, but getting more familiar. I think next trip I might brave buying a daikon cause I finally know how to use it (even though it is a staple vegetable in Japan and you eat it everywhere). I was going to list the items below with their prices in this entry, but my bus is coming in 14 minutes. Instead, if you are really interested, click on the picture and go to its flickr page. Mouse over the squares to see my notes.

Some of these items are staples for me (yogurt, raisins, nuts, cheap cheap cheap curry, coffee) others are new (lotus root, rosemary, pumpkin pudding) and others are very addictive and I probably shouldn’t buy them again (the sweet potato candy/chip/snack thing).

I will try to document my grocery purchases again - some interesting stuff to be bought!
