My oldest son lived for a year in a small town in Indiana. I sent them
Tex-Mex stuff because it's not readily available there.

I sent a friend in Ontario, Canada flour tortillas as they were not
available there then.

This isn't food related but I sent my ex-MIL underwear who was in the Peace
Corps in Ghana.

Personally delivered Skippy peanut butter and Old Bay Seasoning to a friend
who was living in Paris. More fun to personally deliver food to France <g>!

I received real Belgian chocolate from a friend who lives there. He sent me
the chocolate that isn't available on the internet or in the US.
