I tried to click the picture to see the haul, but it won't get bigger.. waaa! How am I supposed to be jealous of all the good stuff if I can't see what you got?
On your next candle shopping trip you can get some pringles here too! The reason why more food stuff is available in Sweden than in Denmark is that Denmark has banned hydrogenated oil - something that is in most American processed foods. That's why Danes don't have Velveeta, most American chip brands, or regular Oreos. I thought that was pretty interesting.
Jess brought many other things as well! This was just all we could FIT on the table!!! And we only had to pay 50 dollars for one EXTRA HEAVY bag!! And btw, LOVE my new UGGs!!!
Now her plan is to shop for her new apartment and fill those empty bags to take bag to the states!
@Stephanie You can buy Pringle's in every supermaket in Denmark too.
But you are right that only trans-fat-free oil is legal in Denmark. That's why e.g. McDonald's use the healthier trans-fat-free oil in Danish resturants. In most other countries including America they still don't use trans-fat-free oil.

Companies such as McDonald's (MCD) are expected to comply with the city's vote by converting their restaurants in New York. The fast-food giant already has demonstrated that it can eliminate trans fats when required. In Denmark, the company switched the oil it uses to make French fries to one that doesn't have any trans fat.

She is still so gorgeous! And WOW...she brought you a lot of goodies!
Do I see Secret deodorant? I was never able to find a Danish deodorant I liked, so my parents always included that in my care packages.
Enjoy her time with you!
That first picture is too funny with your pouches of refried beans! How is Jess's back after lugging all that to you?
