Today is all about Carrefour. Carrefour is Paris's version of Walmart, except it's much classier and is just way better in every way. Some of the group members and I went there for grocery shopping, and just looking at what the store sold was interesting in itself. America needs a Carrefour- it has everything! This aisle right here has all kinds of cookies and desserts that sort of look like yogurt. They have all kinds of chocolate mousses and other creamy goodies. I bought an apple tart in a jar that I'm saving for later.
But here's something that I couldn't just save for later. These are chocolate-dipped waffles in a bag. That's right- you can just take them out of the bag and eat whenever for a snack. I have snacked quite a bit today- I've already eaten 2 of the 6 total. Whatever- I'll have to make another Carrefour trip soon enough!
Other items that I bought include bacon-flavored crackers. I bought them because my friend said that she had had them and that they were really good- she was right! They're buttery and salty and bacon-y. You'd think that the U.S. would already have them. America needs to get on it! I also bought some really good French cheese, which was actually cheap, some croissants, cherry tomatoes, strawberries, and some chorizo. Looks like I've got some treats to eat in the room!
In conclusion, Carrefour is great. America is in need of one. I think that's it for now. I'm going to try to take a quick nap and then maybe get some Parisian dessert with friends! Ta ta for now!
