Will be bringing a plentiful supply of HP with me for those 'bacon' and egg butties :). All I need to do now is find a source of some good english style back bacon. When ready wash it down with a huge mug of good hot English tea with milk.

Wow, where do you live Britty? There must be a lot of ex-pats there.

I consider myself lucky to have Wegmans that sell the bare essentials (Digestives, Baked Beans, real HP Sauce).

Im in Alexandria VA. There does seem to be a lot of ex-pats here and that must be because of the close proximity to DC. Unfortunately everything imported is very expensive but the $6 for a Heinz tinned pudding was well worth it !!

The large supermarkets near my hubby don't seem to have an international isle but I'm lucky that there's a European shop relatively close by.

My mum-in-law took us there on my second visit and, other than the price, it was fabulous. They had lots of things I liked the look of, but I didn't pay too much attention to their frozen section, so no idea if they'll sell English bacon. Not that that bothers me, my bacon is generally as totally crispy as possible, while not burning it, so american bacon is more to my liking :)

So when I'm finally over in the States I'll be popping in there for my scottish shortbread, weetabix, colemans mustard, salad cream and Heinz tomato soup :D

Kroeger's tend to sell few good selection of food. I am pg and the only food I seem to stomach at the moment is Pasta and weetabix.

Also try

http://www.britishgoodsonline.com

they sell a cool selection of stuff, price wise it's just a little under what I can buy stuff in the shops, but then you have added shipping, but heck whats a few extra pence. (They even sell the plastic bottles of HP.)

I am very into the Chip shop style curry sauce too, goes great with my steak chips swarmed in vinegar. lol.
