USA, Canada / Polmos Bialystok ZUBROWKA in the USA [3]

Any idea on where i can order the real deal in the USA?

I know binnys.com has knock-off Zubrowka with all types of artificial flavors.

The I know the FDA bans the use of the real bison grass because of the toxin coumarin.

But i want to die from the cancer resulting from coumarin.

I find that adding alot of fake stuff will result in a super bad taste and mega hang-overs.

"""""Żubrówka in the United States
Because bison grass contains the toxic compound coumarin, which is prohibited as a food additive by the Food and Drug Administration, importing of Żubrówka into the United States was banned in 1978 by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms.[1] When produced according to traditional methods (between one and two kilograms of grass per thousand liters of alcohol), Żubrówka contains approximately 12 milligrams of coumarin per liter. In 1999, Polish distilleries introduced reformulated US-export versions of the product, sometimes using artificial flavors and colors, always with the emblematic blade of grass in every bottle, but "neutralized" and coumarin-free."""""""

If anybody can lend a helping hand it would mean everything to me!!! Super Thanks.

USA, Canada / I want to ship Vodka back to the USA...What are the laws? [23]

I got away with bringing back 6 ears of Zubrowka 1.5L. They checked my bags and found it but they were more intrested in finding some sort of drugs as i did spend time in Amsterdam. I came in to DFW airport and they just made sure i was 21 and let me god after ripping apart all my stuff.

But i too am almost out and down to my last bottle!!! If anybody has any leads on where to get the exact brand as the picture let me know!!!

I think i found a site that sells the real Zubrowka and have orderd one bottle as a test! Will keep y'all informed!!!

Life / Polish Hussar Tattoo [7]

I am looking for any hussar artwork, photos, statues and anything related to hussars.

I am planing on get a very big tattoo done. I already have one in memory of the AK of WW2. I am a great history buff and i love to have this kind of work done so i can educate others on Polands impact on the world.

USA, Canada / Americans who call themselves Polish - how do you feel about that? [112]

I came to the states when i was 3yrs old! I have lived in the states for the last 18yrs of my life. I am young and i am very proud of my customes and culture!

I go to a all polish mass on sundays. We eat, drink, speak and live like the polish do. We stay current with polish politics. My mother does her best to keep us updated on our origins.

I am 100% full blooded Polish. But as i did travel i came to find out i was not too welcomed by many poles as i was raised in america.

I have pride for Poland and i have grown to be proud of America. Both have made me what i am today.

I feel that i am not the type that is " half polish and half irish and half german and half english and half this and half that" as many americans say. And then pick out the coolest one and claim to be it all the way and can't even find it on the world map.

I was raised in a polish household with polish family all around with polish rules and shown the polish standerds.

Life / Polish Hussar Tattoo [7]

I am leaning towards the winged hussar. I have tryed google and yahoo images. But i find very little. I do like the modern look that they gave the hussar in the memorial statue. like the one pictured here. But i like the look of this other picture too. I like the charging position. But any fighting/attack pictures would be great.

Real Estate / Krakow apartments, average rate per month? [5]

What is the average rate per month on an apartment in Krakow near the city center? I want to be able to walk home on the nights i spend my cash and can't catch a cab. I am wanting something that is no more than 4 tram stops away. I know it seams picky but i am willing to pay extra up front to save on cab fare!
