Every time I've bought Terry's Chocolate Orange they are marked as made in Poland. I think they make them all there since The Chocolate Works in York was closed.

Thanks for the reply but tater tots just don't give the same experience for me.

Making your own isn't too hard, but I think Trader Joe's does 'em.

I just bought six Chocolate Oranges (at $2.88 each ) in Wally World yesterday, I shall report back with a quality update as soon as.

As far as I remember they tasted like the ones I remember back home though.

I just picked up our Christmas pudding in World Market. I bought Matthew Walker, which I haven't had before, but it's supposed to taste pretty good.

My wife doesn't like it, and the kids are very wary of anything new, especially food Mommy doesn't like, so I expect it will be reserved for me and the mother-in-law again this year. I have no problem with that.

Not food, but I picked up a box of 12 Christmas crackers in TJ Maxx this evening. On getting home I looked at the small print and found they came from a company in Rochdale, only a few miles from our old house. Small world!

Wegman's supermarkets, mostly on the east coast have an international aisle with the usual popular British foods. They also have Cropwell Bishop stilton cheese in their wonderful cheese section.

Update on Terry's Chokky Orange, made in Poland, now digesting in Saunders belly, tasted as good as the ones I remember in UK

Just as an aside, bought a box of Celebrations, they had Galaxy mini choky bars.....................god I forgot how good Galaxy was!!!!

These are a reasonable deal, 12 galaxy ripples for just a smidge under 18 bucks. I bought one in poundland in my recent visit.
