#3 most popular soda in Switzerland after Coke and Coke Zero. Not nearly as sweet as either of those and made with whey, of all things. Very unusual, think “iced tea w/lemon, carbonated with a little sugarl

The #1 snack in Switzerland. Seems random so I had to taste for myself. Definitely not hard to find.
Don't eat chips often but I might I might make an exception for these! The flavor is very subtle compared to flavored American chips - maybe regular BBQ flavor at 1/4 volume with a bit of lime and vinegar. Very tasty.
Limited distribution outside of Germany and Switzerland, which will sound exotic to the home folks. Light, cheap, and familiar enough in flavor that the toddlers will eat them.
Souvenirs!

Theoretically you’re supposed to declare foodstuffs at immigration which will slow you down. They should allow them to enter given they’re sufficiently processed to not have a pathogen risk but still it’s a pain in the ass.
Or you just don’t declare it and hope for the best.

Special train today, built for steep inclines.
The track includes a rack on the steep parts that engages a cog under the engine. Very cool.

The scenery in these mountains is spectacular!

Sunrise on the Matterhorn.
The phenomenon is called Alpenglow. The sunlight appears almost white as you watch it but cameras correct it to yellow/orange.

Discovery of the day - pepper!
Tried it at an Italian restaurant and the flavor blew me away! So much more flavor than any pepper I’ve had before. Floral, almost sweet.
