Don't these look like cute little juice boxes? You know, those juice boxes marketed towards kids?
That is why I found these so disturbing!
Yep, that is wine in a sippy juice box. I am not kidding you, these were at the local grocery store. While they were in the wine aisle, and not in another beverage aisle, I will say that the first picture was taken at the end display of the same aisle. This would NEVER happen in the US, which is of course why this is Europe.
I suppose there is limited error for an accident, but I know kids that go into the cabinet and will get themselves a juice. I can see this accident now! This is why I have now seen it all...individual boxed wine. Check out the whole display?
On the way home from the grocery store the other weekend, we found ourselves in a traffic jam resulting from the marching band on parade in our street.
Let's just say that was an interesting experience.
Here I go again catching up on some random pictures. I have been eating this for lunch recently. This is a 1/2 whole wheat pita, LC cheese spread inside, surimi crab and some mixed veggies.
See, I told you there were veggies inside.
Oh, here is another new and fun find from the local grocery store. These are some fun bubble gums. If you think the BocAzul sounds like something that will stain your mouth blue, you are correct. It was quite fun, but I forgot about the blue mouth and chewed some just before going out. Oops!
This is also one of our new food finds. This is caju com piripiri AKA cashews with chili powder. They are really good and we have been back for more.
These are some nice sized cashews, from Brazil.
Last up I have Dona Amelias. Monday we went to Angra to look at a few things and stopped into O Forno, my favorite bakery. We couldn't resist getting these, which are the traditional sweet of the island. This is what the island is known for. They were first made in the early 1900s when the queen (Amelia) came with the king to visit the island. They have remained a tradition ever since. They are almost like a honey cake or date cake minus the dates, and I am not 100% sure what is in them, but it tastes really good.
QUESTIONS: Have you ever seen juice box wine? What is the craziest thing you have ever seen in the grocery store? What is your favorite nut?
