[quote=Anonymous]Former French AP here.

It reminds me about my own experience.
The host mom would ask me from time to time if I needed to add something on the grocery list, which I always said no to because I was too polite. Until I felt like eating something that reminded me of what my mom would cook for me ...

I was used to eating salmon at home, it's not an expensive fish for us. So I asked for it and she told me about what an attitude I had for asking for some food that was expensive and that she'd get it once and that would be it ...

Well, I was very surprised and I would have prefered another reaction. I could have explained it was not expensive back home and she could have told me nicely that maybe it is in America and that they kept that special food for occasions.

I was not asking for the full salmon, just a one meal portion and that was it.

OP, you can get it from time to time, Costco is quite cheap.

I wouldn't get her the vitamins though, that's on her and kind of rude from her to ask you.
