Yes, the milk is weird here.

I can't describe it. It just... doesn't taste like milk from home.

What else is weird?
  1. Definitely yogurt. Kids love to drink to yogurt. Guess it's really a yogurt-milk, but they call it yogurt.
  2. Cereal. I'd pay $10+ for a box of imported cereal before I buy the same Chinese version.
  3. Salt. Chinese salt tastes... like... metal. And it comes in a plastic bag. It's terrible for pouring!
  4. Ribs. That's because they don't really have ribs here. Go to the butcher and buy ribs, if you're not quick it enough, they'll chop it up into bit-sized pieces before you can stay, "Stop!" in Chinese.
  5. On the topic of meat... chicken thighs. Seriously, I have never seen chicken thighs for sale here. I don't even like them. But now that they don't sell them, I miss them. Or at least, cooking them for Josh. If you know what the Chinese do with chicken thighs, please let me know.
