JoyMart!

My friend Danielle and I went to JoyMart (which is a glorious grocery store about a block away from our school) a few days ago and decided that we didn't stand out enough as the only 2 Americans in the store so we decided to pull out our cameras and start taking pictures.  It was great fun walking around the produce and meat department and no one seemed to mind us or our cameras.  Enjoy!
Please note the lack of glass in front of them

The refrigerated section
Romantic?

Cooked meat
At least they're fresh....
What the???
They don't even know what's coming
There are no words
My guess, shrimp of some sort?
I want to try these! I think they're a type of fruit
Yay, cleanliness!

  1. The spikey fruit thing is called a durian. It is grown in Malaysia. Apparently it's a delicacy, but it smells FOWL (and probably tastes the same, too). In some public places (trains, libraries, etc) it is actually illegal to have durian fruit, because it reeks so bad. You have to try it!
    And those poor turtles... it looks like they're holding hands! Cute! But sad....

  2. A little bit of my dinner just came up as I looked at your pictures... I have come to the conclusion that I would NOT do well in China!
