Ela has contacted me and she hasn't started this recycling business yet, but will stay in touch.

Yankee00, I'm curious...why don't you trust charities? and where are these charities in Kunming?

I have many lovely women's shoes and clothes to give away - good, lightly worn pieces and it seems such a shame to just throw them out. I have other friends, both men and women who would also like information about a charity or other organization that accepts used clothing and shoes, please let me know... by email: englishtutour at gmail dot com.

—- And so does Canada produce the finest of apples in the world, especially the Macintosh variety, since the fall climate is perfect for apple growing!

Cider vinegar definitely is not thick and is a sour, liquid vinegar made from apples, I don't know about the Chinese product equivalent but you may find it in the Carrefour international shelves, Paul's, or Metro.

Alternately if you search google for a substitute or recipe for cider vinegar, that might help. Good luck and let me know how it turns out!

Canadian living in Kunming...I have just finished writing a Chinese cookbook, working on a Yunnan cookbook now. Would love to teach those who want to know about the local market produce and how to cook Chinese and Yunnan dishes. Classes would be in English.

Yes, it's a hassle for me to go a long way, but the hassle is worth it. The range of foreign products far surpasses any other supermarket/big box store/or whatever you want to call them. And in comparision to the first time I shopped there 2 years ago, I feel the whole store has improved.

If you compare the variety and the store brand products to the drivvel at the other big supermarkets, there is absolutely no comparison.

My list of real foreign quality products is endless and includes:
- beautiful fresh salmon
- tacos
- lovely baked goods
- fine quality white sugar
- flour - all purpose and for bread
- spices
- a huge variety of spices
- olives
- all the pasta making seasonings and sauces you could want
- frozen puff pastry
- a fantastic selection of dairy products inc. Cream Cheese, Mozzarella, Cottage Cheese, Cheddars, Brie and Camembert, whipping cream - all priced fairly and not overpriced.
- popping corn without the bugs
- the Horeca brand of everything is superb, including olive oil, dish soap, at competitive prices
- etc, etc, etc

Face it, we are in no man's land here in KM so a little bit of inconvenience for all these great products is a god-send.
