Shanghai - Post Report Question and Answers
What household or grocery items do you wish you had shipped to post?

Any specialty foods (gluten free, soy free, whatever free). Yogurt starter and a yogurt maker. - Oct 2016
We brought brownie mix and peanut butter. Good choices. Olive oil is a great one ($$$ here). - Dec 2014

More Western grocery items. Not b/c they aren't available, but to save money. Diapers, which are prohibitively expensive locally. The best air purifiers money could buy. - Feb 2009
