Are preferences different in different countries?

Probably, but I honestly can't keep up.

Me neither.

Some cookies and desserts had to change their names too. But "Blanke vla" is still available.

My grandson had to change his last name.

Groceries including almost a kilo of pork for $6 CDN. It was supposed to be 750 grams but it looked and felt heavier. Couldn't find my scale so I weighed 850 grams of rice flour with a bungee. The meat was heavier.
Also some oxalis for the front garden plot and GF croissants.

Apologies, I thought I had responded earlier.  Yes.

Medicine, vitamins, and cough drops. I also got my dog an antler to chew on.
Can't you guys even just imagine it?

Forget practicality, or your experience....can you just....imagine?

It's there. It always was.
