Aldi's ?

 

[keeleysam]

Bobaks?
EDIT: Whoops thats the polish one.

Kookamunga's ?

There's Eurofresh in Palatine. Are you talking downtown?

 

[Sukhoi]

I'll actually be staying up near Wrigley. I'll check those places mentioned and see if any are in the area. I'm looking for somewhere to buy cases of Multivitamin juice because it's nearly impossible to find in this country and I love it.

I vaguely remember hearing the store I'm looking for is on Michigan Ave.

Palatine is pretty far from wrigleyville.

is there a certain brand name?

have you checked places like GNC or other health food stores? or 'natural' grocery stores like garden fresh, fresh fields, 'produce' type grocery stores, have aisles of imported foods.

or buy a juicer

Nah there are a bunch of brands in Germany that make it. I know for sure Tropicana has a sub-company that does but I've never seen it in the U.S. A natural grocery store is a good idea...I had never thought of that and there is one 5 mins away from here.

Do they carry Kinder Eggs? Tell me they carry Kinder Eggs.
Hell, if you get me some, I'll bear your children.

ok, I don't know if it is the same Kuhns I used to go to as a kid 20 years ago, but it's the only one that came up:

Kuhn's Imports Inc

(They used to have bags with big sausages on them )

You can also check GermanDeli.com. They seem to be sold out of it at the moment, but I'm sure you can contact them to find out when it will be in stock again.

Damn that's the place, and that phone number doesn't work. Kinda close to where we're staying too.
