You can get pinto beans at orussey market in PP.

And i should have also said, no alcohol... the import on that is trickier than i want to deal with.

It's not corn flour, or corn starch, or corn meal. Masa Harina is for making tortillas and tamales. It's a dried corn that is soaked in lye dried and ground also has some shortening. I have seen it only once years ago at sovanna mall, and haven't been able to find it since.

Would like some zucchini and yellow crookneck squash, tomato hybrids like big girl and early girl, rosemary, basil, and jalapeno pepper seeds. I haven't seen these.
Weber kettle BBQ

If you get a good price on half kilo bags of Nescafe, I'd buy it.
