linda 1 is an unknown quantity at this point
Default spicy

As I am a crap cook who relies on packet mixes, I use packets of spices from the Pantry shop, often. Family love !!!MY!!! butter chicken, so I have built up quite a stock of packets. Just thinking now, should I bring them with me, or will I get into bother.
If I cant bring them, how do I explain that I just cant cook anything.

I think you are the lady who is returning to the UK from New Zealand?

You will be fine with food in packets or tins....but you definitely can't take in any meat (cooked or uncooked/preserved) and plants/fresh farm produce...
