Re: Uh... Cream?
What about kicking this thread up a notch? What about things you can do with spray cream.

Re: Uh... Cream?
Welcome to the forum
Can't help with the cream, but depending on where you are, if there's an Ocean State store, they have, and for really cheap, a couple bucks, bistro gravy, jacobs cream crackers, all sorts of random things

Do they just call it something disturbingly different here that I'm not aware of? (I discovered that.... i hope.... stock cubes here are called "buillon". I always though that had something to do with shiny soft stuff. Cough.)
OK, that concludes the first post to britishexpats, though I've been lurking here for the better part of 6 months. Hope it's not too random (suspect it is somewhat. Cream indeed. Egads).

Re: Uh... Cream?
On the subject of cream, is there anywhere that sells cream which is just pasturized and not "ultra" pasturized?? I want to make some clotted cream but you can't make it with the ultra stuff.
A half reasonable substitute for English ground mixed spice is pumpkin pie spice.
All purpose flour is our plain flour.

Hi - I'm new to this forum too. Try Trader Joe's - their own brand of double cream. It's the best I've found yet. Trader Joe's frozen and ready-made meals are pretty good too (and no, I don't work there). Another place for biscuits, tea etc. is World Market - formerly called Cost Plus, I think.
