Ever seen soem of those Container Ships fopr mthe Far East. They are
HUGE and because they use a VERY KLARGE single Diesel Engine they are
also very fule efficent. the shipping cose is very low. $5000 for a 40
foot container. You can put one hell of a lot of pudding cups in a 40
container.
As a side note transit tiem of 4-5 weeks. And as Roy mentioned with tons
of preserviatiaves it is no problem.
