Have you ever spent some time in a foreign supermarket? It’s fascinating! You can learn so much about the locals.

In the UK, there’ll be an entire aisle for breakfast cereals. In the USA, there are more types of milk than you can imagine. Here in Cape Town, the cheese selections are usually excellent. In Kuala Lumpur, an amazing fresh produce hall had me buying one of every fruit I’d never seen before (there were many – and it was such fun trying them all!).

This display at a Whole Foods store just screams ‘first world’…    (Washington DC, USA, 2011)

You think they could have made sure all the peppers' stems were facing the right way.
