I'm more interested in what's in this Latin American section? No tesco near me has this

It's a single-width shelf with a small selection of mostly Brazilian and some (no kidding) Portuguese foods. There's cooked aipim/mandioca/cassava, beans (again, no kidding), some wafer biscuits, that kind of stuff.

Was it stocked by GOB Bluth?

Well, it's certainly more interesting than the offerings in the ones near me

That makes sense a Latin amercian food section sells Latin amercian food. still pretty funny though

Well, sure Brazilian is Latin American but there aren’t products from any other Latin American countries.

Considering there are some Portuguese products as well, it’s more of a “Portuguese language section” than Latin American.

I guess. Sounds interesting the offerings they've got there though

I have no idea if this is a normal cheese thing but our local shop has its own brand cheese labeled "white" or "coloured" and it always gives me pause.
