High prices in singapore.

One thing we've learned while living in Singapore is that this is a very wealthy country. Another thing we've learned: Prices for Western food items are through the roof.

Anyone in the mood for some million dollar cereal?! How about some beer?!

That's right, a six-pack of Corona is almost $25 in Singapore. It's like this for wine and beer across the board. Even the local beer called "Tiger" is about $15 for a six-pack. Looks like Mama and Papa Saigh won't be drinking too much for three months. Also, organic baby food, as well as brands like Gerber are super high in Singapore. I'm so thankful that I brought a couple dozen fruit and veggie pouches for Linna, so I know she's getting healthy foods, on top of all the new foods she is trying in Singapore.

Anyone in the mood for a $15 pint of ice cream?! I guess this will teach us to eat like the locals, right?! One can only hope.
