Almost everything you get in the states, you can get in P.R. as far as brands are concerned...

Oreo cookies, Kool Aid, Frito Lay chips, Oscar Mayer hot dogs and deli meat, all the cereals... all there.

Differences? Local brands of bread, Holsum donuts.

You will not want for American foods in P.R., but there are no "American" grocery stores per se... like Ralph's or Safeway or Krogers or HEB.

If you`re staying in the area of Isla Verde there are a couple of supermarkets that close late. The closest to Embassy Suites is La Plazoleta de Isla Verde. Pueblo Supermarkets, Amigo and Grande, are all major supermarkets throughout the island. They carry just about everything you need. Their prices are reasonable. There are also many Walgreen pharmacys, Dunkin Donuts, McDonalds, Burger King, etc. The donuts at Pueblo Supermarket are realy good. Try their local pan sobao, fresh off the oven. It`s a little sweet like, real light bread. Local food is also very good and safe to eat. You can buy BBQ chicken or pork with local sweet potato ( it`s like a yellowish color root), or Yuca salad with red peppers and onions. You can eat well, delicious and cheap.

Hello. lol. Not to sound demeaning, but just about ALL products sold in ANY grocery store are American products. So you'll be in food dreamland if you're planning on buying dounuts, popcorn, deli meats, and anything American. We also have more American fast food joints per capita than in the mainland (USA), and there are also many natural health foods stores if you're into that.

Practically all of the food that you can get here is "American". The supermarkets here, American or local ones, sell the food that you are used to eating. There will probably be brands that you've never seen because they are local, but it's the same kind of "American" food. So, don't worry, you'll be more than able to get normal food :)

Not only am I Puerto Rican, but I lived there for 12 years, I was raised in Brooklyn New York and eat American food all the time, I had no problem, they have excellent supermarkets that sell the best products from all over North America, and from over sea's, trust me You won't be sorry, P.R has it all: Have a great vacation, Visit my City of Arecibo, you'll have lots of fun and bring back some awsome memories and don't forget the pictures, Have Fun

Yes. I personally like K-mart. They have a large selection of snacks. As for local brands, I like Holsum and Bacardi.
