My school district this year is same as always. On the day before Thanksgiving we will dismiss 2 hours earlier than usual. Have a great Saturday today everyone.

For many years we went the 3 days before Thanksgiving but we had so many missing students because of deer hunting and traveling for Thanksgiving (but mostly for deer hunting) that it was such a pain to do anything academic. So they moved two of our professional days and a day off for staff to this week and it works so much better.

We have a couple of places/websites here. I was speaking to the man who owns one of the sites recently and he said that there are some products that no longer satisfy EU regulations and can’t be imported for sale, hence why some products are mo longer available.

Yeah, I was told that, too. The cheetos are one of them, so I think I'll have to ask my best friend to send some.

Funny, because Cheetos are still available from them, and I think I’ve even found them in France in a supermarket. If I remember, I will look tomorrow because I think I’ll be going into a French supermarket before going home.

Huh...the only ones I can get here are from Asia...not sure which country, but there is kanji on the front of the bag. And we tried those, because they look exactly like the regular Cheetos Crunchy from the US, but they are not as crunchy and they don't taste the same. So we always have to look closely to make sure they are actually the original US ones, not the Japanese or Chinese or whatever they are. It might be a Netherlands thing....that they are allowed in the rest of the EU, but not here.

My best friend lived in Australia for a while and she said when they went back, they couldn't stand any of the American junk food because it was all super salty and had a weird taste to it. Everything in Australia had to be changed to meet regulations and it was all slightly different. They got so used to it that they couldn't stand the original stuff anymore. And there are things that I hadn't had for years because we didn't have them here, and they just didn't taste right when I went home for visits.

So you can definitely get the puff Cheetos in France (saw them in the gas station mini mart. In the end I didn’t go into the grocery store because we wanted to get on the road, so I don’t know about crunchy Cheetos under the Cheetos brand, but there is one called Belen which is very similar to crunchy Cheetos.

You can get the puff ones here, but we don't like those. Sometimes we can get a generic version of them, but there's one we got that was not very good and I don't remember which ones we like, and which ones we don't, and I can't always find them. There was a grocery store that had the good ones for several years, as well as mac n cheese, root beer, and cream soda. Then they stopped carrying all of the American stuff.
