US Food Missed-what to indulge in and maybe bring back!

I'm with you on the Cheez-its!!

they do have muffins here- but they're not nearly as "craggy". no nookes & crannies for the butter.

I do cheat a bit - I have an actual Thomas's English Muffin splitter that helps make more nooks & crannies than simply slicing with a bread knife...

really?  what does it look like?  a big fork?

It's like two forks attached and you plunge it into the muffin, then split them apart - gently!  My mother had it when I was a kid, and when I moved to the UK she let me have it.

jealous.  enjoy your craggy muffins!

Intrigued, I just had to investigate this. Peedal, is it like this:

I may have to have one sent to my parents' house - nice little toy to pick up when we visit at Thanksgiving. Though I anticipate a lot of eye rolling from dh!

Thomas' English Muffins rule, the supermarkets try over here but they dont have the right type of nooks and crannies.

I'll have to look later - can't see that link during non-lunch hours from work!  But it's probably close.

I love it.  Works on muffins & scones really well.
