Ksysia: Meat - the one in the shops is just poison. The one from the butcher's is all right, I know the best butcher in town. When English complain about meat in Poland, they mean steaks - and we don't have steak meat, because we don't have steaks in our cuisine.
No, we complain about lack of variety.
Ksysia: Fish - there are some fish, you can find fish markets in cities. Outside of cities the best bet is Tesco's - the fish is fresh, but no sweetwater sifh, sadly.
Have you ever been to a fish market in the UK at 6am?? The choice is beyond compare.
Ksysia: Milk - it's not milk, it's white water after all other products are taken out. But, as with everything else, if you research long enough you can find something excellent. There's one variety of milk in one shop that tasted good - Dairy Crest, small glass bottles with metal cap, 0,4l. No label.
You should drink blue milk, it's normal milk. If you fancy getting really good milk then get gold top...that will knock your socks off (unless you are from the country).
Ksysia: if I'm prepared to drive around town for hours, to pick every article in a different store, then I can eat well even in the rainy land. I've even found some President plums once. Oh joy.
So if you go to a supermarket in Poland you get the best of everything in one place? I don't think so. If you want quality food at good prices you need to look for it...
[edit: everything i mentioned is available in supermarkets, unlike Poland, but I try not to go there in order to support local businesses]
