Denmark: Fotex

Everyone who knows me knows that wherever I go I must visit a grocery store at least once during my trip.  I love walking up and down the aisles looking at the different products, discovering what flavours are popular or in season at the moment.  You really get a feel for what the locals are buying and eating.  One of the grocery chains we discovered in Denmark was Fotex.  In this particular location, I spent almost two hours combing the shelves and found some awesome products.  Items like Heinz American Hamburger sauce (aka “Big Mac” sauce), Heinz curry mango sauce (which I brought home with me) and Wasa’s cracker sandwiches made with cream cheese and chocolate.  I’m a chip lover and I love the unique flavours you can find and this was the first country where I found Lay’s Ketchup chips outside of Canada!  I also discovered that the Danish like their salads, I found an entire refrigerated section dedicated to this product.  Everything from shrimp, tuna, herring, mackeral, pickle and egg salad to only name a few.  I only wish I was able to try them all 🙂
