Yep thats it,from imported irish pork, it tastes real good
we had a brit breakfast,I cooked some wiltshire bacon, eggs and some of those bulk/boxed frozen sausages ( nearest thing I found to the UK ones)
Good old superstore, they must have a brit involved with purchasing,as they seem to be getting a few interesting items in...
Cheers

Hang on! Weren't you just spouting on on the other thread about how immigrants should 'integrate'. Surely this is a perfect example of non-integration??? Isn't the point that you shouldn't cling to old customs, habits and likes?

Good to hear it tastes right. I will get some next time. This trip I bought some Maple Leaf ham that tastes like British type ham. It was called all natural or something, non cured cooked ham.

Galen Westons family owns Selfridges don't they? I often think the adverts are like the Waitrose ones and that the Presidents Choice range of things is getting more British. That's fine with me.

Why should I be less two faced than everyone else?

Obviously the Canadians are a diverse and cosmopolitan people who have eclectic tastes. Besides, Wiltshire is a foreign food to me.

I just checked the packet. It's called Natural Selections Non Cured Baked Ham

-wish I could think of something witty to say re natural selection, Darwin, cured ham and all that. I'm sure someone will though.

Although its Maple Leaf I agree this isnt bad. You can also get a smoked ham and a turkey in the same range.

At the other end of the spectrum from PC....'No name' chocolate digestives. Imported from UK and almost as good as McVities.
