Mmmmm...biscuits!

You guys need to get used to not being able to get them when you get to the USA.

Eh!

Being able to order online and pay 5x the cost is just not the same as being able to walk to Spar and pick up some Choccy Digestives on a whim, is my point. I'm fully aware the ability to get Biscuits FedExed to you.

I can live without chocolate digestive biscuits; I find most chocolate in the UK to be too sweet for my liking. I prefer American chocolate. It's a bit less cloying. I will miss Mr Kipling's Lemon Slices though.

Plain Chocolate Digestive (as opposed to Milk Chocolate) for the win!

Indeed it was a plain chocolate digestive that set me off on my rhapsodising this morning!

Can you get Green & Black's chocolate in the US?

Anyone who's in the San Francisco area, or who will be, or who has family there to mail stuff off, I can direct you to a tiny mecca of British foods stuffs in a random corner market. Really, a huge wall of treats - biscuits, crisps, sauces, treacle tarts.

I like digestives a lot. But then I found penguins and my life has never been the same. Yummmmm!

Just what I was thinking.

(only laughing because I haven't had one for about 5 months! )

Mags they have digestive biscuits at World Market in Carmel. When I lived in Indianapolis I frequented that store even though I lived downtown and it was a drive.

Yeah, sadly there aren't any Costplus World Markets in my state.

They have a large variety of Green & Black chocolate at Target here.

Doesn't that just suck? Theres one about an hour and a half away in Ohio. When I went for my biometrics we stopped to get gas in a town that sounded familiar - then realised once home that was the town of the world food store. so close - yet so far

When we visited FL we came across LOTS of British food shops. Anytime we go anywhere we always check online before we go to see if there is going to be a place for Neil to get some goodies from home.

Elm City Maven-

Have no fear, they have them EVERYWHERE here in Connecticut! We have three groceries here in little Wallingford, and they have about four different varieties of digestives in each - no caramel ones, though.

That's because the population of Florida outside of Miami is probably about 50% British. At least it seems that way!

Literally today, I came across a little corner (well, okay a little shelf section) of new British goodies! Galaxy chocolate bars! 4 different teas! Biscuits, hobnobs, plain, plain chocolate and milk chocolate. Richtea biscuits. Plus a few others. Squash. Baked beans, heinz tomato soup, heinz leek and potato soup. Brown sauce. Homepride curry sauce, plus a few other homepride sauces. Branston Pickle. Rice Pudding! And some more besides.

I can't tell you how excited I was to see it. The funniest thing about it all? I'm moving to California soon, therefore this is a little late in coming. However, funnier still, is that I met SanDan, another VJ member and her hubby in the same store (when less than an hour ago before I was talking about how I needed to call her and arrange to meet up with her soon), and SHE was the one who directed me towards the new British shelf section! So she was also thinking about me just barely before we saw her. So funny how the world works sometimes!
