I now live in Hawaii and the cost of living here is really expensive, so I am going to say you’re shopping at Safeway! My husband once paid $15 for a canteloupe and $20 for a watermelon.

Hrm, if I HAD to guess, I’d say the party is at your house. Will check my spam filter for the invite.
But yeah, I’d go with BHFM.

No one has mentioned Super H Mart, so I’ll take that one. I can’t remember a large selection of Bulgarian Feta on my last visit though…

I’m stumped but YDFM wouldn’t charge $41 for any produce unless maybe they carry black truffles.

Just an idea for some of the watermelon guessers… perhaps it was a small case of melons? As in more than one?

So:
Bruce called it right off the bat. The Buford Highway Farmers Market is really the only place that comes to mind when I want to buy the ingredients for both watermelon and feta salad as well as gado gado — both dishes on the menu for a huge graduation party that I put together with a bunch of my daughter’s parents.
Super Titi Crackers are just like Indonesian shrimp crackers, except they’re flavored with garlic rather than shrimp paste. They are made with tapioca flour and look like little chips of glossy plastic — that is, until you put them in hot oil and they turn pale and porous, and swell to many times their size in a flash.
I hope everyone has a great Memorial Day filled with as many Super Titi Crackers as you can eat.
