Got Milk?

On Saturday, I was at Sandra's house with Beth and Amy. We were talking about how prices have gone up considerably for some things since the winter weather storms (and other factors - China's really battling inflation right now). Fresh vegetables are a lot more expensive. Milk is also something that's gotten noticeably more expensive. Sandra pointed out that since we buy liter boxes of milk and they're 7 yuan a box, we're paying more than $4/gallon for our milk! We're paying as much or more for milk as people in the States, yet it's for Chinese milk that we only barely tolerate!! :-( What a sad realization. If I have to pay American prices, I want American taste! Oh for a cold glass of real milk and a monster cookie right now . . .
