Finding Food

I live in Japan. I grew up in America. I love Japanese food. I love American food.

When I go shopping at the grocery store, often I can’t find items that are common in America. Likewise, when I visit America, I can’t find items that are common in Japan.

Fortunately, in Seattle there is a Japanese grocery store. We can find many Japanese ingredients there.

Also, in Japan, I found some specialty shops. I can buy many things I like at those stores.

One food that I like a lot is cheddar cheese. I use it when making tacos or chili. Sometimes I just eat it on crackers.

Have you lived in a foreign country? Was there a food you craved? Could you find it someplace?
