I'm not there yet but I reckon I'll miss potato scones, and donor kebabs the most

....I'll re post in a few months and I bet the list is much longer lol.

Swisstony

Pork pies!

jumping doris

We can get donor kebabs where I live...they are called gyros.
Potato scones...no. I miss all the bread and baked goods.

Here is my list (some things people bring over and I order on line)

Cadburys.
Mr Kiplings fondant fancies... they make a giant one now.
Curry
Butter.....US butter doesn't taste the same.
Cheese
Orange squash
M & S ready meals...and Tesco/Asda ones too.
Pork pies and sausages
Cream

probably quite good for my heart that I can't get most of those!

it does squish down pretty easy!! and once squished is impossible to un-squish, but needs to be un-squished to be sliced and have butter added - actually now I am missing it!!!

Meryl

my aunt's now a usc, but whenever she comes back to the uk, she goes to the chippy and orders one of everything!.....she also stocks up on oxo cubes lol.

On my last trip back to England I brought back Kenco instant coffee, Soreen and Bisto gravy granules

OMG..how did I miss having one of those when I was over there this summer

Burn1911

I can buy Bisto in the world market here.... one evening we had some friends over, the guy is a UKC the girl a USC, so I thought I would make shepherds pie and with it I also served up bisto in my pyrex glass jug - and OMG she about fell off her chair laughing as she said "that is so English, the gravy in the pyrex jug"

lisa67

becareful....oxo is a meat product and therefore isn't allowed to be brought in (sorry to be a party pooper!)

helwardman

Yep, I can too. It's just a bit hit-and-miss as to when they have it in stock.

Burn1911

Yep, they can never be relied upon to have Cadbury's Double Deckers in stock!

Totally OT - so sorry - notice you are in Louisiana, we are recently feeling an affinity to that area as the newest member of our family is a Catahoula Leopard Dog, the State Dog of Louisiana

Meryl

lol, crikey I'd better tell her, she'll be gutted

Cat Whisperer

Mueller yoghurts, especially the piedmont cherry
M and S victoria sponge

cathy22w

That's funny... I unwittingly took beef Bisto with me to the US on a return trip once and then when filling out the little form realised I had it with me so declared it. The customs officers and I looked at the ingredients - not a bit of meat to be found!

Mummy in the foothills

But you can post it, not sure why but thats how I get my supply
