The local supermarket

I went on a little trip this past week to a local Korean grocery store in the city we live in. It was very interesting and below I took some pictures of some unusual and interesting items that they have. 

Watermelon that cost 30 to 35 dollars each. Fruit is very expensive in Korea.

Grass??

A whole bag of garlic. They need this much since it's in their very famous dish called Kimchi.

A jar of very tiny shrimp. 

Fresh fish

This lovely squid was in my lunch the other day. 

Bird eggs...interesting.

This is a college students dream.  There are so many choices of Ramen noodles! 

Whole legs of pigs. If you look closely you can see the hooves. 

Dried Fish. 

When you check out you they do not provide free plastic bags like the states. You either have to pay for plastic bags or bring your own re-useable bags. I know this is how it is in Austria as well and I really think the US should try this out. We could be helping out the environment a lot more just by making this small change.
