When you’re Asian-American, you grow up with two supermarkets. There’s the one where you buy all the cereal, junk food, US Weekly, and various condiments. And there’s the OTHER one, where you go with your parents, filled with various exotic (OMG. I hate this word. Why did I just use it? Anyway) vegetables, live fish, picked vegetables, and other foods that are difficult to describe to your American friends. Here’s a peek into a recent shopping excursion to a Korean Supermarket with my Dad. (Los Angeles’s Koreatown). The manager was really annoyed at me when he saw me with the Flip Mino, and I really thought he was going to throw me out.
