I thought some of the mandarin oranges I’ve bought were from Spain. I’ll check next time I can but I’m sure I saw that.

We live near the largest Wegman’s in the chain, and they’re renovating it, adding even more stuff, and it’s ALWAYS mobbed.

Funny thing is, some of the stuff I like the best I can’t find there. I find it at TOPS instead.

Yup, Wegmans (Ithaca) is really the only place I shop for food. Such an outstanding supermarket. The mandarins I've seen there have either been from Spain, California, or Morocco, actually from the same suppliers when I lived in the Midwest. They keep forever too.

I've been much more careful about frozen foods after all of the problems in China. Most of the frozen vegetables are pretty clearly marked now, and I try to stick to the Western Hemisphere. (Mexico, Brazil, US...)
