I use Taobao to buy imported food products. Where I live in central China, there are not many foreigners. Therefore, many foreign products that are necessary in Western cooking are not often available. I have purchased things like chocolate chips, baking soda, whole wheat flour, rye flour, masa harina, and blackstrap molasses. I love Taobao!

I’ve lived in China for quite a considerable time including my graduate school years, travelled and worked in a few cities and still choose my destination taking into consideration the density of smog or PM2.5 particulate matter in the region.
