One thing I miss from when we lived in Canada is British food stuffs. Aero Bars, Digestive Biscuits, real Salt & Vinegar Crisps. Weetabix, Alpen, clotted cream, Cadbury Drinking Chocolate! So this place is always taunting me. I get my Bird's Custard Powder from them, so they send me email updates, and I always click and drool. and now, they have a free shipping offer going [weep] I could so do damage to my bank account....

In Australia and New Zealand they call the same product "Weetbix". Possibly more logical, but funny all the same (and 100% certain to trip up visiting Poms).

They also do this weird thing where the biscuit is sliced in half so you can spread margarine and honey on it. I have tried and failed to master this trick, but a taste test of hubby's creation didn't convert me.

Them folk down under bist strange :) They prefer Vegemite to Marmite. Nuff said.
