Cheerios hit NZ.....

[carole]

So far we only have the plain ones, i guess they are going to see how popular they are here, Samantha Puppy, NZ does not necessarily get a lot of American products here, I am suprised to even see them in the store, we do get Oreo cookies, had them for a while, but generally I do not see many american products here, so it's not that we are late getting them, just we dont import much of them.
