I'm guessing that's KaDeWe in Berlin that she's at. When I lived there a few years ago, it was nice to go there and get a couple American groceries once in a while. They had canned softdrinks in 12oz sizes instead of the usual European .33 liter size. My buddy and I also got to try samples of some super-high-end variety of Jack Daniels whiskey - nothing I'd ever had in America before. The last time I went was around Thanksgiving, and they stocked boxed stuffing and jars of whipped marshmallow.

Saw someone mention peanut butter earlier. That's a regular grocery store item in Germany nowadays, so you wouldn't have to go anywhere special for it. There's a European precedent for PB - it's an old Dutch food, but it's savory. Germans typically eat the American-style sweetened PB.

Funny that I recently finished reading Superfreakonomics, where they make the argument that the women's liberation movement correlates to inferior teachers today. Case in point, see above. This teacher cares less about intellect teaching discretion than pleasing the ineffective politicians making up the senior management of the school district.
