FYI

I miss Kool-aide, fruit punch in general, peanut butter, pizza, hardy, crusty (not sweet) bread, cheese (yes you can get it here, but all I see is blah cheese) and real sandwiches (the japanese concept of a sandwich is totally different from an american one). I'm actually doing okay in terms of the homesickness (of course I miss my family and friends, but I'm handling that okay). What I'm really desperate for are the above food items. Sigh. I just had to put that out there.

I'm surprised you can't find something like kool-aid. Hmmm.

They have flavored drinks here, but not fruit punch or black cherry (my two favorites). What you typically get is more straight up juice which is good and probably better for you...but I still miss the more sugary drinks.

Also, keep in mind that I am in the country. I'm sure I could get many of these things in big cities like Kyoto or Tokyo, but they don't tend to be in the small markets here.
