Emart has green beans in the produce section. They are next to the lettuce and pre-made salads.

That's a good call; it's crappy but, I still enjoy it now and then.

Costco has nearly all I need to survive. However the one in Daegu needs to stock Ranch dressing.

The core of my kitchen is built around Costco purchases - dill pickles, cheddar cheese, fajita seasoning, sliced ham, and Canadian bacon. Without this stuff it would be a desolate existence indeed.

Amen to that!!
I just brought two big bags back with me and while they were crushed beyond the point of being called chips, it was amazing to have some S&V chips. I just wish I could buy some here to last me through the end of my contract.

2080 toothpaste is just as good as anything from back home. Whatever you do avoid that 송염 toothpaste - it's evil.

I would ask for Cream Soda

I bought a tube of it for the first time just last week & I like the pine taste. Refreshing new concept, I thought.

That expensive Clarin toothpaste (about 3,500 per tube) works VERY well to whiten teeth.
