a. After conflicting reports I asked CCC (Chadrui) what they would carry in imported groceries and were told that they were going national and all American groceries would be discontinued. After a tip from Dean I checked out Aramburo (on Forjadores on the right about 1 block before 5th February). They stocked American butter, ice cream had a good oriental section and a nice butcher and produce section. I spoke to the manager who said if I gave her a list they would be happy to stock imported items for us. She gave me her E mail address and told me to send her items we wanted. Top of my list is American flour and brown rice. If you would mail me items you need I will send them to her. Just e mail me at jjfuentes40@hotmail.com  and check out Aramburo's its a nice grocery store not a mega outlet with music blasting you out the door. Mari
