I know it isn't an exhaustive list, but a few more critical items are:
Chocolate
Flags - especially American flags
Extension cords
Pens
Tables
Sculptures
Handkerchiefs
Mind you, any time you actually want one of these items, they are NEVER there
In Uganda you can buy bags of fried grasshoppers from the side of the road! The whole experience is made more unpleasant as a crowd of dusty, smelly men thrust bags of the critters at you through the car window trying to get you to buy theirs!
The most weird roadside produce though has to be the fish that were miles from any water sources...not sure how fresh they'd be after sitting in the sun all day.
Still not as impressive a list as yours though! And your list is far more impressive than the nothingness I can buy hanging out of my window here!!!
I have nominated you for an award! One lovely Blog! Blog more!! lol!
