  6. Wow. I am counting my blessings. Almond butter is available in the states as much as peanut butter; just not as many brands. Wish I could ship it over!

    • Dont think people will be very receptive to almond butter, cause the word almond in Asia associates with white food.. so its kinda mismatched when it comes to color.
