We see a lot of kitchen stuff imported from South Africa. Some of it is awesome - like the little ramekins that have been on Krista's wish list for years but we've never had the space or weight to bring from the Statse. Other stuff is comical and outrageously priced. It's often worth the premium in price to let someone else ship it into Kenya and incur their own loss to breakage. Then we can pick from the ones that aren't broken - and gladly pay the high price. Today's cases in point (and yes, those are authentic Heinz and Campbell's products next to that Russell Hobbs Electric Can Opener - all equally exotic):
