Every time I go grocery shopping, Coretta wants me to pick up Paprika chips and TOAST bread. I still catch myself laugh laughing at how silly the names are. Paprika is a spice in the states that has really no flavor (in my opinion) but is referred to a chili spice here. These chips are very good and have a kick. My Mom would love them.
TOAST here is used for well... toast, but also makes good peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. I also laugh at the labeling. It has toast spelled out in all caps with Uncle Sam's hat on the letter O. It also states XXL bread. Are they making a reference to the obesity they see in America...hmmmm...I must take a minute to ponder this.
The last picture is of a box of kleenex for kids. A lot of kid's products have these characters on it and they are also printed on the marbles I referenced in posts past. Here is a site that references things that are different in Switzerland and I felt rang true: Suprising Things in Switzerland.
