Some folks like small towns for various reasons. Food
variety isn't usually in that list. My sympathies and
I hope the other features of rural living appeal to you.
I'm enough of a big city boy that if I can't see one or
more helicopters in the sky at any given moment I figure
I've left the city. That or when folks quote a phone
number to me and it's only the 7-digit extention, chuckle.

Sympathy. I'm a low carber and I avoid low fat labelled
items. And stuff that's really low carb doesn't *need*
a label to say so. Asparagus doesn't need a label
saying it's low carb for me to want some.
