After my last post the food situation has stayed the same or gone down hill, if that was at all possible. But, today WE FOUND HEAVEN IN INDIA in the form of Food Hall, a grocery store. It was clean, has a large selection, and it has as many gluten and dairy free products as we have in the States! Yes it was expensive (but so is Gluten and Dairy free food in the States) but it was worth it!
We got Gluten-free pasta, cereal, pizza crust, and flour so I can make my own breads!
We also got Buffalo Mozzarella, the "real deal" people! As I am typing this there is a Gluten free buffalo mozzarella pizza in the oven. My mouth is salivating and I feel a feeling of eupohoria that I haven't felt in some time.
In addition to specialty things I was also able to find the spices and traditional Indian foods I wanted and needed to cook to make a complete meal, so now I can (hopefully more successfully) make meals that are edible and taste good!
I still need to update you about some of our adventures including attending a badmitton tournament and registering with the Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO). That will come; as well as some recipes. Now, we need to devour some pizza!

So glad to hear you guys finally found some food options! I was starting to worry about you guys wasting away over there!
ReplyDeleteTiffany,
ReplyDeleteHooray!!! I also was thinking by the time you came home you would be walking sticks. I am glad you found items that will work for you. I also know you well enough that by the time come home from India you will have good tasting Indian recipes for us all to try out and enjoy! Keep your chins up! :)
