Thai supermarket tour.

For no particular reason, let me guide you to the finer establishment known as Tesco Lotus supermarket. I was fighting a nasty case of artist/writer's block this evening and decided to tag along with my mom and aunt-in-law for some food for tomorrow's BBQ, (no special occasion, just a feel-like-it BBQ.)

The transportation of choice was a small green scooter/motorcycle. And yes, we carried all the groceries on the trip back home; the BBQ stuff plus assorted household supplies. Too bad I couldn't take photo of us doing that, but just google indian/asian family on motorcycle, you'll get some idea.

Thai Supermarket; movies
Yeah, there's movie theaters, now showing: Resident Evil 4. And a thai horror movie about ghost of pregnant women.

Thai Supermarket.
Arguably the most important aisle in the supermarket.

Thai Supermarket; instant noodles

Thai Supermarket; campbells soups
Yeah, Campbells soups, expensive as hell compared to local stuff.

Thai Supermarket; spam
And Spam. Don't worry if you come here and can't stomach local food :D

Thai Supermarket; octopus
Move on to fresh stuff, although this didn't look particularly fresh.

Thai Supermarket; more pork
Pork, specifically, pork belly. Awesomely fatty goodness.

Thai Supermarket; beef
Thai people don't eat much beef, at least Thai people of my income bracket, this is all they have in the whole supermarket.

Thai Supermarket; chickens and porks.
Comparing to row and row of pork and chicken.

A sad-looking sushi. It was near closing time so it was a buy-one-get-one deal.

Frozen stuff.

Thai Supermarket; green stuff.

Thai Supermarket; broccoli
The DONOTWANT area.

Thai Supermarket; blue swans cake.
Do you think this one belong to cake wrecks? It's not too bad but that bird butts do look like pile o poops.

My battery ran out and I forgot to take photo of what we got. I felt a bit silly taking photo of such mundane things. But hope you enjoy it :)
