I love Branston small chunk and just yesterday opened my last bottle! So so yummy with cheese & crackers!!! Love it!! My fiance is coming over in 10 short days and will be replenishing my supply! Of course, I am more excited that he is coming, rather than the Branston!! But I am really grateful that he does so many thoughtful things to make me happy!

Enjoy your treats from home!!! :D

I'm rapidly making my way through the Mars bars I brought over from my last trip. I'm scared I'll have withdrawal when I finally get through them! :lol:

I love Mars Bars. Since being over here I find that the US Milky Ways are pretty much the same. Any port in a storm! :lol:

True - except our chocolate sucks. :lol:

I had to make a pit stop at this great corner market in SF this weekend that is a virtual temple to british snack foods - crisps and biscuits and chocolates galore. All too much money, of course, but when you need a Penguin, you need a Penguin, so what can one do?

Had some folks from the UK visiting for work last week and they brought me a bag of these:

nestle-aero-bubbles.jpg

Yum. ;)

Also I got really excited the other day when I thought I saw a Toffee Crisp in my local gas station, but it turned out to be a "Coffee Crisp", which interestingly was a chocolate wafer thing, with coffee flavoured Aero style stuff in between the wafers. It came from Canada and was made by Nestle, so this was officially the closest thing to an Aero I've found in Pennsylvania!

Update: I guess this was the result of this petition!
