Default Now that's better.

My Daddies brown sauce and custard powder came yesterday. So I had fried eggs on toast this morning with brown sauce, and the missus is at this moment making me a nice trifle.

Today I found some squeezy bottles at WalMart to put the brown sauce in (they came in the glass ones.....not sure why these online vendors don't just get the squeezy bottled sauce when they import it....as they are shipping it again and all....) - and to top it off, I found Cadbury's fruit and nut (appears to be genuine stuff) at WalMart too, a buck for a 99 gram bar.

That little bit of home every now and again is just the ticket.

I picked up some Cadbury's chocolate fingers and some Cadbury's chocolate from Bloom, and it was so good to see that there.
I order a lot of stuff from Wise Choice foods, I know I pay more for havng it shipped here, thinks like Branston Pickle, Fruity Sauce, Aniseed balls, Fruit gums and such, but I love getting the parcels, it's like Christmas when they arrive.
Enjoy your Cadbury's choccie. I will be looking for it next time I go in a Walmart.

Don't know if its by region, but all the Walgreens around here sell Cadburys fruit and nut and most of the other varieties.

as your in Ohio like me - you should have a meijers nearby. They have an international aisle and a section for brit foods - can buy some of what you have mentioned there (custard, beans, biscuits, chocs, weetabix, squash, etc).

Yeah made by Hershey's - but it tastes like the real thing, so no complaints from me.

Cadbury's chocolate made in Australia tastes as bad as the stuff made here under license by Hershey.

I wanted to see what Cadbury's tasted like - but World Market only had a giant-sized bar. I wasn't that curious.

I just find Hershey's innocuous - if I want nice chocolate, I buy something Swiss generally.
