10. Oh my God. What a find.

As a displaced New Englander this is amazing. Fluff, B&M bread in a can, Cains dressings, Autocrat, Peggy Lawton Cookies. I am going to need to start working a second job again so I can stock up on a taste if home.

16. Thank you

I am already licking my chops. Trying to limit my first purchase to things I really miss and are not perishable.

You made my day!

Thanks again.

7. Rhode Island style adds hot cherry peppers to the mix.

It's really good, if you go for that kind of thing. I love it!

6. Coffee milk is a drink made by mixing coffee syrup or coffee extract and milk together

in a manner similar to chocolate milk.[1] It is the official state drink in Rhode Island.[2]

I've heard about it on one of the tv food/travel shows, Bizarre or Bourdain.

8. I don't know if they still have it on the menu

But Legal Seafood used to offer RI style calamari as a starter on their menu.

When they did, I rarley got to ordering a main course.
