If anyone living in Greater São Paulo knows of a supermarket that sells maple syrup or blueberries (mirtilo in Portuguese)would you please pass the information along to me. They are really about the only two things I really miss. I cook as a hobby and I would certainly love to make a real "honest to God" blueberry pie or muffins and pancakes are just not the same without the maple syrup.
For my other cooking needs I have been lucky enough to find places that sell things like peanut butter, Tahini for Greek dishes, Feta cheese, etc. How about you expat cooks out there? What foods do you most miss? Maybe we can share information on the different food items and where they are available.
