Graham crackers aren't available here, as far as I know, but maybe someone else will chime in with better news. I think digestive biscuits are really as close as it gets here. People use them in place of graham crackers to make smores and pie crusts and things. But there might be a specialty shop someone else knows of, hopefully.

I saw some in a Chinese grocery store yesterday, but I have no idea if they are like American ones.

Never seen 'em. Digestives are a good substitute for pie crusts (though not s'mores IMO). But in terms of eating, digestives are thicker and heavier.
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ~ John Lennon

Yup, I use digestives for crusts in place of graham crackers. It's not exactly the same, but good enough.

Perhaps you could offer to do a food swap with someone here on UKY if you're really desperate for them!

Thanks to everyone for your replies,I actually eat digestives at the moment as well but I'll have to give cybercandy a try and see what they're like.

Just to let everyone know that I found graham crackers at www.americansweets.co.uk [nofollow] , the bad news is that they cost £4.99 per box and £3.99 shipping,I'm afraid that I'm not that desperate,I think I'll stick to digestives.
