Hello,

We have some friends who moved to the U.S over a year ago and they often send us Jolly Ranchers etc... which you generally cant find here unless you order online. We are trying to think of british things to send back which they cannot get there. To remind them of home. Any ideas?

Cadbury's chocolate? Beats the pants off Hersheys anyday
send em some marmite
Question Author
Surely Cadburys is available there now? I am unsure, it will certainly go in the box.

More suggestions please =)
It's available over there but not using the same ingredients as we make ours and ours tastes miles better.

Ahhhh... well you learn something new every day and all that. I will make sure they get some then!

Uncle Joes mint balls & Pear drops
If you look through the products offered by this online store you will get some ideas for the types of things that Brits abroad are missing:

Cox's Apples, nothing like 'em over there.
Beef Oxo's can't get 'em.
Marmite.
Hobnobs
i think its cheese and onion walkers crisps that my brother likes receiving. And salad cream and chocolate
All these items suggested on here are available in the US except for Cox's apple. However the Cadbury's chocolate there is awful.
Cox's are grown in the US however I have no idea of the distribution.

I understand that HP sauce and PG tips are very hard to find and very expensove when yoy do.
yer as redcrx says our bro asks for crisps alot as their 'chips' arent quite the same. He likes marmalade sent and quavers. Oh and curly wirleys
HP sauce and Heinz products can be found in just about every grocery and corner shop.
Crisps such as Quavers, Space Raiders etc.. Oh and my sister in the States always asks for Crunchy Nut Cornflakes.
