Is there a place that caters to Americans in BA?

I have to import powdered ice tea, splenda, Betty Crocker, choc chip cookies and other stuff.

Paris has the REAL McCOY for us, anything in BA?

Thanks

Try searching for Jumbo and Carrefour. I seriously doubt that you will find all American brands you are looking for, but you should find some of them.

ThanksI have found a lot of American imported foods in Chinatown in Belgrano in the larger Chinese supermarkets, at reasonable prices. They have peanut butter, Heinz Ketchup, Paul Newmans dressing, etc. Also lots of spices, and fresh.

A useful trick I use is to bring a 1 quart plastic bag full of individually packaged condimennts from fast food restaurants and coffee shops from the US. Not only does it avoid wasting an entire jar of mustard, etc., you can bring stuff hard to find like Grey Poupon mustard.
