You can buy the sauce and the spicy sausage from Amazon (US site);

The UK Amazon site has the paste too but as it contains meat I’m not sure if it would be confiscated by the postal customs if you ordered it from the UK though.

I will keep a look out (lots of Italian delis in New Jersey!

PS; I’ve just found it in the ‘Everything Else’ section on Amazon.com... “Madeo Spicy Calabrian N’Duja Paste”. However....you have to buy 3kg of it and it costs a whopping $59.93....!!!!!!

British_in_Brooklyn is an unknown quantity at this point
Default Re: British food

I ordered a box of goodies from https://britishfooddepot.com. My order came within a couple of days.

My order included 8 bottles of Robinsons squash (various flavours) and the postage was $11, which I thought was pretty good.

I also stocked up on Heinz baked beans, jaffa cakes, plain chocolate digestive biscuits, and Branston pickle... you know, the essentials

They have a Christmas section so I'll be placing another order before Christmas. I will not, however, spend $7 on a box of mince pies, even if I do love them.

Oh... has anyone managed to find anything that resembles a British sausage? I'm really missing sausage rolls but I can't find anything similar to a sausage or sausage meat from home, not even from the local butcher.

I used to get my 'Nduja from Waitrose. I miss Waitrose.

Sorry, not helpful.

I just got an order delivered from www.britishcornershop.co.uk. It took 9 days to arrive and shipping was £19.99 for up to 30kg which depending on what you order could be around £200 worth of goods. They have a deal with Waitrose so lots of nice stuff available alongside all the big brand stuff.

Thanks for that website, some decent deals to be nabbed there!

Also, check World Market if they are around you, I'm sure the mince pies were cheaper in there. And maybe Aldi might get some in?

You can always save some money and take Metro North from Grand Central to Woodlawn in the Bronx. Lovely Irish neighborhood. Walk up to the Butcher's Fancy and purchase all of the above that you had shipped to you.

http://www.butchersfancy.com/

They have Irish sausage (made on the premises) which might be the same as British sausages. Steak and Kidney pies, etc.

That's good. They were okay last year, terrible the year before, but fantastic before that, so a little hit or miss.

The Wegman's attempt isn't to shabby, but price is creeping up a bit.

Still not seen them in Hannaford's. Have been told Aldi's have theirs out and they were good.

Thanks - just got 2 packs. $4.99 for half a dozen IIRC which is good value.
