Is someone coming to the US from the UK very soon?

[Robert&Karen 264]

Can you pack some OXO cubes and mail them to me? We're out. :-)

[Nich-Nick 3,354]

Is this address near you?

British Food Shop

27601 Forbes Road #2

Laguna Niguel CA 92677

They sell OXO http://www.britishfoodshop.com/shopdisplayproducts.asp?Search=Yes&sppp=150

I searched Laguna Niguel since that's what you put for you local office. Or try googling "British market [your town]". I discovered a British Market 10 minutes from my house by random accident after living here two years. My local store is internet based, but you can walk-in and make purchases. They even have bacon. You might get lucky and discover something near you.

I think my profile location says Angelus Oaks. Laguna Niguel is quite the drive, but we will keep it it mind!

Apparently there's a place called British Emporium in Upland -- still a hike, but much closer.

You might try asking your local supermarket that has a foreign foods section if they'll stock Oxo cubes for you. You never know! I'm hoarding mine right now.

Also, I occasionally get stuff from British Corner Shop if I can't find it at one of the local shops here (we're pretty blessed on the Westside of LA when it comes to British and Indian shops). Not cheap, but you know when you MUST have something... Here's a tub of 60 Oxo cubes: http://www.britishcornershop.co.uk/product.asp?id=5591

Try these websites, never ordered from them myself but they're worth a look at. The top and bottom ones have oxo.

Just looking through them myself and I feel like a kid looking at everything!!!

I need mince pies.

Just sayin'

[JoannaV 174]

I found OXO cubes just in the regular section of one store.

I do miss having a little mince pie at everyone's house :-(

Exactly the things my husband put on his list of Christmas items to pick up at the British market we discovered near us. It's really just their warehouse. They don't even have a proper cash register since they are an internet business...just an adding machine on a utility table. This is their website for ordering. http://www.goodwoods.com/

And their frozen goods they ship with dry ice http://www.goodwoods.com/baconbangerspiesandmore.aspx

When I popped in to check them out, I bought some Walker's salt and vinegar crisps, Crunchie bars, and Mr. Kipling Bramley apple pies.

Me too.

But I have found Cross & Blackwell mincemeat at the supermarket, and will be making some pies later this year.

Does anyone know if you can get Lorne sausage back in the US at all? It would be nice to be able to make my lovey some of his mom's Stovies when we get back.
