'Merica - foods we missed
1:06 PM
We have been back to America more often than we thought we would when we moved to England.
At first, we missed a long list of groceries, restaurants and American food. Slowly, we have stopped missing the comfort foods of home...
Except for CORN DOGS. I will never get over corn dogs and the British would never eat such a thing.
Here are just a few of the things we craved/sought out while we were home for the holidays.
Cap'n Crunch...or the generic version. Same diff. We didn't seek it out but it was at home and fun to eat. ONCE. Then my mouth hurt.
You will NEVER find a British cereal this sugary. Weetabix (eaten hot apparently, I eat it cold because I don't do mushy cereal) is what you'll find lining both side of the cereal aisle. And bran flakes. Boring stuff only, thanks.

This is the stuff dreams are made of.
We tried to eat Chik-fli-a as much as possible :)

Peruvian food is probably my favourite. While you could find any kind of cuisine in London that you could ever want, Peruvian and Argentine places we have found are RIDICULOUSLY expensive so it's not something we eat frequently.
Guys...what? Pop tarts exist is two flavours here, Strawberry and Chocolate.
And they sit on the shelves of a very select few stores. And they hardly sell.
I'm a pop tart lover. But I can tell you, those chocolate peanut butter ones are GROSS. Don't do it.

Also...Café Rio. YUM
I brought a few boxes of Wheat Thins back with me. I LOVE Wheat Thins but the small box costs $9+ imported to London. I can't bring myself to pay that much. So I hope these boxes last a long while.
