Does anyone have any recommendations of things to take back to the states from England? I'm compiling my list, and I notice on one of the other threads someone mentioned savlon, so thats been put on it.....

Apart from the normal chocolate, yorkshire pudding mix, gravy granuals...... Is there anything else that the UK has that I would struggle to get in the US and can take with me???

*and if you ask me nicely I'll bring a case back with BE supplies and ship em all out to you

Yeah I can buy it in a supermarket about 45 mins from me and it's $6.49 a bottle. If I can get it for free when they come over though, i'll take it.

Here's my typical list:

OXO cubes (although I can get them in Publix now)
Campbells casserole mixes
Sainsbury's high juice orange squash
Resolve for all the hangovers (LOL)
Lemsip
Radox
Germolene
Jaffa cakes
Any blackcurrant sweets I can find
French mustard
M&S extra strong tea bags
Lots of Cadbury's chocolate

And I always end up buying tons of CDs. I'm sure there are tons more that I can't think of right now!

mellybrown

olybus oil

meauxna

Wikipedia does not have an article with this exact name

So, it's like some antiAmerican lotion?

The cleaning stuff is TSP btw.
