Uk food online??
Hi,
Just wondering what the best website to order british food from would be? Want to order my husband some items he has been missing while in the states and not sure the best place to order UK food in the US.
Thank you in advance!

I buy all my M&S stuff and English tea from this company:
http://www.britsuperstore.com/
Their service is very good and the more you buy the more economical their shipping charges are.
I already have my M&S Christmas cakes and Christmas pudding

scroll back a page or two, quite a few threads with a few recommendations, but yeah, Amazon is generally pretty good, especially with postage.

I was once treated to a huge pork pie fresh from the oven in Otley.
It was horrendous and landed in the bin as soon as possible without causing offense.

Can one of the Mods not suggest an all encompassing food thread to those in charge? Its probably the only sticky the Trailer Park needs.

I know, I almost fell for it.
Joking.
I agree with you that a pinned thread seems an obvious good idea.
But it's also a topic people just LOVE to post on.
Also, we don't ask the Powers That Be for that sort of permission, we just run rampant when we feel like it.
Plus, it's Bob & MsE's forum.. take it up with them!
I'm still sulking over my failed attempt to corral all the pork pie shops into one thread.
