Re: Twiglets
After finishing my first box I had a slight panic as Amazon no longer had twiglets. Fortunately today they have them again: http://www.amazon.com/Jacobs-Origina...1288566&sr=8-1

Re: Twiglets
OK, so maybe they've had them for a while, but it seems like it might be a recent addition because the reviews are all pretty new. Not a bad price for 16 large bags:

Damn, I should just open an on-line shop for you guys. You all miss your foodstuffs so much and I can get it here for so much less ... man I could give up my day job.

Re: Twiglets
The twiglets are good value - these are the large bags and it works out at under $2.30 for each bag. Last time I looked the big bags aren't far off £1.50 each in the UK.

Re: Twiglets
Edit to add: I can easily get through a bag every couple of days if I'm not careful.

Re: Twiglets
come on people, even if you didn't like them in England we must now KEEP THE TWIGLET ALIVE!
Part of being British! Forgetting the twiglet is simply not cricket, chaps....
I have a HUGE jar of marmite which my parents brought over last visit. Lasts forever, I'd only just finished the jar from their last trip the year before!
Ruth :0)

Re: Twiglets
Guilty as charged! I wonder if we could commission some sprout-flavoured twiglets? - that'd calm everybody down...

Re: Twiglets
Well, at least make sure that Amazon keeps stocking them. I've actually converted a few Americans - including a colleagues kids, and a friend's kid (a whole new generation of Americans to carry the torch).

Re: Twiglets
Shame they stopped making the Worcestershire Sauce flavour Twiglets, they were nicer.
