Yeah I keep hearing it from loads of people "they've got a british section in publix now". Keep looking for it in my local one but not seen it.

Depends on the Geographic area, wether there will be a British section, if you don't have that section and can find enough expats, that would buy, they will cut in a shelf for you, (normally)

Hmmm....if only we had a publix down our way
Stop n Shop have a Brit section, but $6 for a pack of Hobnobs? I don't think so...$8 for Robinsons? Not that desperate.

I just go to either the AirForce Academy or Peterson AF base to get my English food, shame they don't sell sausages there. The British Shoppe in Colorado Springs is very expensive for them.

I was at a Wholefood in Birmingham this week and they had a British section which was reasonably priced.
I got Nairns Mini oatcakes on sale (and still well within the use by date) and digestives for about $3.70, still pricey but a lot less than I've seen in other places. They had colemans, hob nobs, chocoloate buttons and a whole bunch of other stuff.

Same here, my local commissary has a great Brit food selection, pricey though, I bought a chunk of lamb there the other day $14.75 for just over 2lb My son loves the hobnobs and the crunchie's though. They don't always have the same stuff, and can't seem to find Bisto anywhere except online!

I have forewarned my family and I friends that I will expect care packages every so often to be sent to me with food and treats that I discover I can't get in Indiana! Everyone seems willing to comply...so far nut they don't know what postage will be!
