Shop/website for American food
« on: October 14, 2005, 10:17:33 AM »
I was nearly in tears at their Milton Keynes location last night... oreos...grape jelly... nestle tollhouse morsels...and wonder of wonders - all three flavors of the most wonderful food in the world - Marshmallow Fluff!

Eeek - the Oreo snack pack - 6 cookies! is £.79!!  You can get a box of 4 packs of 4 for £.59 at Sainsburys.

I was too moved by the selection to look at the prices, LOL. 

Hmm the fluff is £2.69 a jar.  If i ignore the conversion to dollars that doesn't sound too out of whack from what I recall. 

Looks like there's other places online that it's £2.69 or £2.89  a jar and one place where it's just over a pound a jar (but you have to buy twelve jars to get that)

As a treat, I understand it.  But don't get caught up in trying to buy some of this stuff to always have it!  You'll go bankrupt.

Whereabouts in Tesco?  I notice that website has it in with confectionary, though American stores would group it with the peanut butter and jelly etc.

We may be making a Tesco run this weekend I'll have to check (we normally do our weekly shop at Aldi).

I'm more of a Jif girl myself, but actually the UK peanut butter we have in isn't bad. I just don't recomend a FlufferNutter made on Naan bread LOL

Yep, regular (white fluff) and two kinds that are pink - Strawberry (which I haven't had in decades) and Raspberry (which i never cared for but that's just me).  This shop in Milton Keynes had I'd estimate at least a dozen jars of each!

I just bought those today.   ;D

I must be lucky or something.  My local Sainsbury's has plenty of American food!
