Someone else noticed that you can't get Kraft pizza mix and sauce in the US. ####### is with that? I've gone without this for 1 1/2 yrs now and I am planning on bringing a case of the stuff back when I go to visit family /cry

I will have to add aero bars to my list too. Damn Americans! Why? Why? Why?

I just found a site that will ship canadian items throughout the world. OMG thank goodness! Now I can get my Kraft pizza mix, smarties and aero bars. There is a god!

Which site, as some I have seen are very expensive for Chocolate bars or at least just expensive enough that I won't pay it. Perhaps that is the good thing lol.

Actually if you really do like those Smarties, just go to any British Import store and they should have them considering Smarties are actually a British candy that Canada picked up on. So if you live in a fairly big city there should be a handfull of British specialty stores around to at least get those...

This may seem dumb but my husband and I really miss Vector Cereal. They dont sell it here in New Jersey or anywhere i've been in the US actually. It was really good memories of breakfast together :)

Whoooo Hooo! I found crumpets! Hehehe - I had to go to Locust Grove (about 15 miles south of us) today to renew my Driver's License since it expires on my birthday in June (an incredibly easy and efficient operation - I told them they could give lessons to USCIS - they laughed and agreed!) and stopped in at Ingles on the way back to pick up some groceries. In the freezer section I found crumpets! I bought 8 packages, heheheehe. The Ingles down the road from where I live don't have them and while Locust Grove isn't too far away, I know that I now have a good supply in the freezer at home! Yay - I know what tonight's snack is going to be. Crumpets! Heheheheh (ok - I'm getting carried away but I have been missing them since I arrived here more than 4 years ago - although I did order in one lot from California which were really good). What was also nice is they only cost $1.99 a package as well - and no shipping costs, hehehe.

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

That's funny, because I was going to log in and start a pool on when the Cheez Whiz would arrive. I so would have lost because my guess was going to be Saturday. :lol:
