None of this stuff is available in the Putuo District markets. Some markets do have American sections, but none of this stuff. I was not the first to send a CARE package, of this kind of stuff. It took a week to get there, so I had to avoid perishables. I think Fruit Loops would survive a nuclear war. She won't get diabetes. The kids share.
