That's not much variety for potato chips and popcorn is it. Lots of space taken up repeating the same flavor. ;-)

The chocolate aisle probably crushes what most places here in the states have though in terms of quality.

No one cares about popcorn really. We have 4-5 basic flavours and most brands cover them. Chicken, green onion, sour cream and chives, salt and vinegar and ready salted are the basic flavours.

And various puffed snacks and corn chips.

There's stuff like nestle and Hershey's in the chocolate section. Lindt and Whittaker's crush them quality wise.
They start at 33% cocoa and go up to 95%.


Different flavours?

Flat white coffee. Here we believe in "flavour".



Baristas can get a silver fern design on the foam.

That chocolate aisle is pretty intense, but the other two pictures might as well have been taken at my own grocery store

They gave me grief about NZ pizza. We can get American style here but you're stuck with your coffee and chocolate.

Looks like we have arrived at the throwing hands in the air point of the thread.

They? That's Snarf to you, oh person from the imaginary land.

In fairness, I am not sure that what is served in New Zealand can even qualify as "pizza." Maybe we call it .... New Zealand Dough Products?
