MOVE 1
From Highland Park, Michigan to Los Angeles, California. NO VERNOR'S GINGERALE till many decades later!
MOVE 2
From Los Angeles to Boston. ZERO MEXICAN RESTAURANTS OR MEXICAN FOODS IN THE MARKETS. ZERO!
When we moved back to L.A. from Boston 5 years later every day for lunch I ate a bean/cheese burrito. No joke. No kidding. I expect by now there are lots of Mexican restaurants and foods in Boston but in 1965? Nope.
Also couldn't find BEST FOODS MAYO until I discovered it was called HELLMAN'S on the east coast. Why I do not know.
So what similar experiences have you had?
