Hi! This seems like an interesting idea and I'd have something to contribute now that I'm living in Japan :D Definitely some interesting new foods here.

    I live on a military base so I get most of what I can get at home. Two things I can't find though are zucchini and Malt o Meal brand of frosted shredded wheat (I like it better than the normal stuff).

    Interesting foods are these things called Pretzls...which are almost like normal pretzels except thin long sticks, and very airy.I like them much more than normal ones and they go great with Nutella. They also have ramen in a cup which is much better than the packaged ramen from the US. I know they have a lot of other things too, but I can't read most of the labels yet (I just know how to find the calories). I know once I'm comfortable shopping off base I'll find a whole mess of delicious goodies. :D
