Food (or food-related things) that I'm looking forward to coming back to:
- pita chips
- stick pretzels
- “mixed veggies” on a menu not meaning frozen carrots, peas, corn and green beans (example: “mixed veggies, avo spread, and hummus sandwich”....)
- chips and salsa! real tortilla chips and salsa that's more than mashed up tomatoes seem to be very rare here...
- more than three carefully placed black olives on a Subway sandwich (amusing story)
- “plain” flavored things (crisps, crackers, pretzels - most everything here must have a flavor...)
- “plain” flavored things tasting plain instead of actually meaning onion or cheese
- tofu (because here it's over 5 dollars a box!)
Food that I'm going to miss:
- samoosas (Pick n Pay brand especially!)
- Nando's peri peri wedges and delicious veg pitas after church on Sundays
- chocolate powder and strawberry soy ice cream at midnight
- Budget Rolls on campus for R10
- Chai smoothies (actually more like shakes...) from Kauai
- Rooibos tea with lemon from Alma Cafe across the railroad tracks
- Woolworth's R6 noodles (like Ramen noodles...but vegan...)
- original flavor skittles (because here they don't have gelatin in them...)
- litchi juice available at a convenience store
