Fellow travellers:

A while ago I sent Cheryl a list of places where she could buy "yerba mate" in
the USA and she suggested I should post it here.

Most of these addresses I took from the FAQ Argentina and translated it into
English. I deleted products and prices because these things might change. Some
of these addresses I recieved via private e-mail and kept them as a reference.
If anyone knows of more, please e-mail me so I can add it to my files.
You can find the FAQ Argentina in:
