How about Dutch Dairy products (Edam cheese etc

When faced with two choices, simply toss a coin. It works not because it settles the question for you. But because in that brief moment while the coin is in the air. You suddenly know what you are hoping for.

I wonder how long it will be before jars appear on ebay available for shipping to Denmark? (just checked and there's none I could see yet)
