Visiting back home - food list
« on: November 15, 2008, 05:46:01 PM »
My mom wants me to email her a list of food stuff I want her to get for my visit home next Friday.

So far, I can only think of:

Wheat thins!

Any ideas?  I want to get my American food fill while I'm there! :)

I always go out for Mexican food pretty much immediately!

Snacks definitely - I'm with ya on the wheat thins. Also triscuits. And fritos. Pickles - lots and lots of kosher dills. Anchor Steam beer. Bonny Doon wine. (Not that I'm a lush or anything  :P ) Gizdich apple juice (that's a regional thing). Sourdough bread.

Oh and Yael? I LOVE your avatar.  :)

I second triscuits. Also, I had my mom buy me a bag of Mother's Circus Animal Cookies because Mother's has gone under and they won't exist anymore.

Thanks for the ideas! Oh, Mexican food is already a given!  :)

My list is:

Cheeze-its
Triscuits
Goldfish crackers
Fritos
Wheat Thins
Kosher dill pickles
Swiss Cheese
Diet root beer

I even had the cheek to ask for reduced fat where available!

I noticed no one has mentioned Twizzlers. Dh & I always get at 3 or 4 big bags of them when were in the States to bring back with us that is one of the few American sweets Dh actually enjoys.  ;D  [smiley=2thumbsup.gif] for the list Yael has that pretty much looks like part of my list that I always bring back with us minus the Diet Rootbeer.

I need dried, not candied, orange peel.  I found it in Hong Kong, but not here.
