They dont even have BLEACHING POWDER.

"If I dont know about it it does not exist to me"

They dont have BETEL LEAVES or Paan in Doha...

All Middle East / Gulf countries are CRAP and "Shopping" is a FARCE

Mohan,

You need to explore Doha a bit more..my initial reactions were similar but I did manage to find most of the stuff needed...

On the airport road there are loads of large supermarkets which may stock whatever you are looking for..between family food centre to Shoprite....

Look at Doha beyond the 4-5 malls and you will have a lot to look forward to...I haven't figured out how one finds parking in such places though like Souk Area et all....

I've never heard of BETEL or PRIMO juice milk so that's probably something particular to your country, Mohanarun. However, there are plenty butter biscuits and bleach too. So before you call anything a farse have a run around the shops.

Chewing paan is not wrong or habit forming unless it is Jarda or some drug is mixed in it. Betel leaves is different and is actually good for health and it increases virility. Thats why people frm Andhra who eat lot of betel leaves keep fucking around reproducing like crazy...

As to the spitting, it is lack of discipline on the persons fault. Not the paans fault

What about PRIMO Juice milk? That too is not there

Lol. Your teeth and the streets will be happier. I know people have habits but that is as disgusting as tobacco snuff. Sounds also like you are having PAAN withdrawl symptoms :-)

Act your age not your shoe size

I thought it was important, like not being able to find your corn flakes or something.
