The American shelf at the grocery store in Finland

Miriam wanted to try to get some root beer to stand in as butterbeer at her Harry Potter-themed birthday party this weekend, so we headed to K-Citymarket to see if they had any. Lidl and Prisma sometimes have random American products for sale, but K-Citymarket has the most consistently broad selection.

We didn't find root beer, but as long as we were standing in the American section of a Finnish grocery store, I thought I'd take a picture. Here is what gets sold as "American" here in Turku.

The prices are horrendous - the pumpkin cans are €5 each (...I bought four to stock up ahead of pumpkin bread season). But if you really, really need Pop Tarts or Swiss Miss or (*squints*) Gary Poppins Popcorn, K-Citymarket has you covered.
