Recently, Angel and I discovered the Chinese version of K-Mart. On our trip to this store, Angel and I found some "creative" translations of the store sections. I saved the best for last, so check out all of them!

West Point's not just a military academy...it's a food section. Full of "Western" snacks, which mostly hail from Korea and Japan.
Picture
Got your instant noodles on the left, and "business" on the right. What's in the "business" section?

Picture
Why, "Hot & Sour Family" and "Refined Soup Chop Flavor" of course.
Picture
"Puffing food" is exactly what it sounds like: foods that make you puff up.

Last but not least, come to China if you need to buy "stereotypes". They have a whooooole aisle of "stereotypes". Just gettin' some milk, bread, and stereotypes.
