This tub of American goodness was hand transported all the way from the U.S. mainland to the Papuan rainforest for the purpose of being auctioned off at a school fundraiser that was held last weekend. As soon as Chris and I saw it sitting on the live auction table, we (okay, mostly I) knew that we had to get it.

Easily justified by the fact that it was the only existing tub of Red Vines on the island (and quite possibly in the entire country of Indonesia; or, even all of Asia, for that matter), we couldn’t resist. We paid an absurd amount of money for it, but, suffice it to say, it was worth every rupiah (especially, after seeing the girls’ faces when they saw it). Plus, the money went to a good cause.

Food for the soul!
