WalMart!

Thank goodness for WalMart! I can't believe I'm writing those words, but it's true. We heard that there was a WalMart in Daegu, so last weekend we decided to check it out. Unlike the huge big box stores at home that occupy vast amounts of land, this was a tidy little deal that was all stacked up- food on one floor, clothes on the next, etc. We took in every aisle in the food department, and bought a bit of Western food. We couldn't believe how Western the store was (which might explain why it's only about half as busy as its Korean counterpart, Emart). I was even happy to find things like "Shells and Cheese". And the worst part is, it wasn't even the real Velveeta stuff, just some cheesy (pun intended) knockoff made in Bentonville, Arkansas. Oh well, it's nice to know that if I'm ever dying for some food from back home, WalMart might just be there to save the day.
