There is even a West African supermarket where you can buy pretty much anything you need. I may have to put together a little care package...

I'm salivating already. I love all the food I've ever had from Africa - Liberian, Nigerian, and Kenyan so far. But I would love to try it all! There's an African grocery store in Nashville that I've driven by a few times, but I'm going to stop one of these days.
The only thing I've eaten in Africa that I hated was "Wheatabix", which is actually made in England I think. It's these little cereal rectangles that dissolve into nothing. They are SO gross! I just saw them here in the grocery store the other day and I thought, "they are following me!!!!"
