Blackcurrant squash. We've even seen Marmite here, but the concept of squash seems to have eluded Canadians so far.

Cheese, hula hoops, skirts, Sky TV and the M&S underwear department

I got Orange Squash at Sobey's the other day after a tip from someone of BE. Don't know is you can get in where you are it's made by Granthams. Also Ribena is pretty easy to find here just a little more expensive.

And to answer Judy's question Jelly Babies!

One of the highlights of our trip to Toronto a few years back was the Cadbury's (and other Brit faves) readily available in the supermarkets...
