Do you buy any food on the internet?

 

The problem is her favorite canned food items like fruits for making tea have no English name. Normally I Google and query a little…viola an answer, but with her supply carried from China running low I can’t figure out what to do. The international and local Chinese food stores just can't import everything.

 

Any recommendations for a good website? Distributor in America?

This is what my wife found

 

http://www.efooddepot.com/countries/China.html

 

http://orientalfoodmaster.com/

 

Nice!!! thank you very much!

 

May I ask... how she found these sites? I seem to recall you live in China?

 

Regardless, I can not figure how to find web sites with Chinese names.

 

Thanks,

 

Mike

Start with the China-Town and Asian-Grocery store threads in the State-side forum.

 

I am moving this thread there.

My wife has me wire money to her family and then she will call them and tell them what she wants and they send it Fedex to us.

very easy and the money I send is for the buying of the can and boxed goods and the shipping charge with a little extra left over.

I moved KJJ's post about online food merchants to the Food store thread.

Found some through Google.

 

I think Jingjing found one link through 001. She spends a lot of time on there. Seems that many people over there recommended the orientalfoodmaster link. Seriously, as Dan has mentioned, Google is your friend. We're initially going to set up in Kansas City, MO. Jingjing was worried that she wouldn't be able to find any Chinese foodstuffs in our area. A simple Google search revealed several shops/addresses in the area.
