My findings so far:
-You can buy Robinson's if you are wiling to pay huge money in the International eisle. They don't have no added sugar ones anyway though.
-If like me, you think it's far too expensive, you can buy bottles of Propel which tastes a bit like squash. It's sold in the water eisle in my store and is flavoured water.
-Stay away from the crystals that you disolve in water as taste like plastic.
-Iced tea can be suprisingly like squash. I didn't think I'd like it so never tried it before but Starbucks Passion one tastes a bit like summer fruits by robinsons.
Wait until you need cream or flour. That took me a good half hour alone to work out!

So in terms of food Fry's = Kroger, eh? Here Kroger = Fred Meyers, which if you take out a bunch of letters becomes Frys...hmm.

"how d'ya do on your spelling test son?"
"great - got them all right......well, I think so anyway - I'm pretty sure I got all the right letters but some of them might have been in the wrong places...."
