...almost anything containing meat products, such as bouillon, soup mixes, etc., is not admissible...

The regulations governing meat and meat products are stringent. You may not import fresh, dried or canned meats or meat products from most foreign countries into the United States. Also, you may not import food products that have been prepared with meat

Almost anything and most foreign countries. So that's clear then.

There are tons, I meet them all the time in Seattle. Most seem to be brought over via Microsoft or an aircraft-related company.

Bisto ($4) works so much better than any US gravy granules I have tried, most of which create a lumpy mess.

I use Campbell's Beef Gravy - it's all I can get around here.

I agree there are TONS of Brits in the Seattle area but I was referring to my 'ickle QFC in Maple Valley tucked away in the corner!! It is just an odd store to carry so many British products - but I am definately NOT complaining

Bisto is fine, Oxo is not.

Amazon probably is the best place to get it here, but sometimes you can get it on the cheap at Brit stores on sale, though it usually costs a fortune and especially in the main grocery stores here.

I get Bisto gravy granules (which have no beef in them, per the ingredient list) and Bovril (that does have beef in it) from Amazon. I LOVE Amazon
