Local Shopping Adventure

I like my adventures to be easy.  This week, I needed a few things that they sell off base, so I headed out for that.  I decided to try the store Max Value.  I had heard about it, and I could see the sign from the main road.  However, with the streets here, seeing does not mean you can actually find it!  I decided I was going to try though and I circled closer and closer till I finally found the right road.  Yay me!

Max Value is a grocery store.  They did have a delightful bread selection, but nothing new to try.  I grabbed several of the fat sliced bread squares and meandered around to see what else I might need.

Oooh!  Pre-made lunches!  No, not brave enough to try this.

Definitely not interested in fish. 

Spaghetti?!  No, not really what I was looking for, but amusing to see here. 

Ah, the candy aisle!   

Well, that's not what I tend to think of when I think of candy! 

And this is not what I tend to think of when I think "edible".  No tentacles for me, thank you! 

Now this I could live with.  
Sadly, I guessed wrong.  The green stuff was cucumber, not avocado, and the crab was significantly fishier than any I have had before, and the other 2 were fish.   Definitely not what I had hoped for.

These were rice balls.  I had heard good things about them and was excited to try.  

I started with the ones on the end.  They were pretty good.  Kind of a fried rice with chicken (I think) smooshed into a roll.  The center ones were bean which isn't bad. Then I tried the ones on the other end. 

Eeeewwww.  It was fish.
