When I was in Englad the supermarkets were very similar to the ones here in the states. In fact - the one I frequented most had a much nicer selection of bread than the one I shop at here at home. Nice crusty breads.
The one thing I had to get used to was the fact that they really didn't have 1/2 and 1/2 for my coffee. I used a light cream - now THAT was more of a treat.
Overall - the grocery was just like here. And this was in a very small town.
So what's this broad whining about?
