   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.
