    I Was Denied Entry At Ezeiza

    So, the random lottery hit me and I was denied entry into Argentina. Man, serious bummer.

    Disappearing Splenda

    I had been buying a brand of Argentine Sucralose (Splenda) in a yellow box called Sucaryl. It's been disappearing from the shelves and been replaced with a blue box that doesn't contain sucralose. Anyone else notice this? Anyone know where I can find the yellow box of this stuff? Abrazo—M
