I would imagine it takes some time getting used to even if you were only away for a couple of years.<br /><br />@mamaya – reindeer jerky is pretty delicious. Understandable that you miss it.<br /><br />@Shawna – Franks is also good, but I have a soft spot for Cholula. <br /><br />@Anonymous – Im just glad that you specified that the beers you were having were pre hockey. Which would suggest that there may be some post hockey beers as well. <br /><br />And youre right, the packets show just how much you care.<br /><br />@E – the midwest is special though. Theres corn. And cows. Well thats about it, but corn and cows are both delicious.<br /><br />@Stacy – just try it. Trust me.<br /><br />@Tod – my stomach has been trained by culinary dishes like Red Sea Goldfish.<br /><br />@Anonymous – you are absolutely right. Skype moved food above friends and family in the list of things people miss while abroad. Im pretty sure they should use that in their marketing campaigns.<br /><br />@Anonymous – again... you just have to try it. And Sriracha is also delicious. <br /><br />@Anonymous (cowboy) – agreed, hot sauce does get a mums.Hairy Swedehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18041694218084956969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1837418360328434663.post-1145379543675392512009-11-16T00:17:13.857-06:002009-11-16T00:17:13.857-06:00long time no talk hairy....but the blog stays good...long time no talk hairy....but the blog stays good... hot sauce....mumms...cowboyfromnowhereAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1837418360328434663.post-36307056401404557442009-11-15T09:31:05.792-06:002009-11-15T09:31:05.792-06:00The Red Sea Goldfish sounds a little...uh, how can...The Red Sea Goldfish sounds a little...uh, how can I say this politely?..GROSS, but I too adore Cholula.

Only two good places to get Colula packets-Raising Canes & Pelican Lakes.

We bring gallon jugs of it back with us in our suitcases, and not just for the husband and myself, but we have a few Swedish friends that we have shown the light to as well that we need to bring it back for.<br />All's I am saying is that I understand completely.

Really interesting. I just moved back to Sweden after a couple of years in the US, it is a weird experience! Specially as it gets dark at 3pm right now. Oh well.
