Cookie Dough...

So its true, the food here is a little bland. A lady a worked with was talking to me about how the food in America is so much sweeter and salter...and I was thinking and boy is it good! As a result I have eaten more Italian food here than I think I have eaten in my entire life!

The grocery stores are surprisingly different! We have sooooo much more food and sooo much more variely thant they have in England.Even the food that is the same brand as we have at home tastes different. For example, here the Ritz crackers and more dense, not a crispy and have no salt on them! Its crazy!

One things it is impossible to find is cheese dip. Trust me, we have looked at every mexican and latin resteraunt!

Secondly, they don't seem to sell pre-made, packaged cookie dough! It does not exist!! We have asked all the people at Tesco and they have never heard of it. We found an italian resteraunt that had a cookie dough desert it in Oxford and got so excited. We ordered it and they told us they were all out. We saw the same resteraunt in Edinburgh and asked for it and they were out too! So, Monday when we went to Victoria station and saw the resteraunt again we decided to try one last time...and they had just the right number left for the three of us! We were so excited about the cookie dough that the waiter thought we were kind of odd.

Doesn't it look yummy! 

Lesson: Bring your own cookie dough, ritz crackers, and cheese dip to London!
