American food per German grocery stores (and another reason why I miss Whole Foods!)

The Real is the bigger (i.e. better) grocery store in town but it is not really walking distance unless you don't mind walking for about an hour and then lugging back your groceries (which on a nice day I actually don't mind!).  So because we had a rental car, I took advantage and went to the Real and today I happened to also have my camera.  So I would like to share what the Germans think that Americans eat. May I present the USA section in the grocery store:

Yes, we have the pop tarts, the Betty Crocker cake mixes, Swiss Miss hot chocolate, Hershey's syrup...  Is it me or are you also detecting a theme here?  The thing is, I actually do want the Cambell's tomato soup and the Swiss Miss hot chocolate!  Except  the price of one can of soup is 2 euro which equals $2.62!!!  I can hold out until I get back home.

  1. Yes, the very best of American Foods. We live happy, albeit obese lives, on processes sugars and tons of salt. God Bless us all !
    Tanya, Campbell's tomato soup, really?
