I just checked out your site... it's ok but you need to add things like packets of hidden valley ranch dressing, Mexican food products like taco seasoning  and diet drinks/sodas. I have noticed on this site that's what folks seem to want the most.
The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

May you find hope in the darkest hours and focus on the brightest days free from bitterness that grows you may not judge the universe.

I don't eat any of that stuff in the US so have no desire to have it in the UK  ;D

I didn't see peanut butter listed. How about some Skippy? I would love to see Mott's apple sauce too!

A few more favs:

Baker's baking chocolate (unsweetened)

Annie's mac and cheese ("Bernie Bunny")

Cheerios -- the original plain ones they don't seem to sell in the UK

How could I forget: B&M Boston Baked Beans!  ;)

Do American Goodies include beauty/hygiene products? If so there's a demand for Neutrogena bath and face products. Also Secret deodarant ( I use the clinical strength one religiously).

I really miss the Tostito's Zesty Bean Dip. I've tried making it at home from scratch, but can't get the spices quite right. A friend recently returned from the states and brought me back a jar. Made my month!

Nice start.  I can get many of those things at a couple local shops that carry a few American goods though.  I'm also surprised you haven't done stuff like Skippy peanut butter, Maccaroni and Cheese, and Hidden Valley Ranch--oh yeah, and I so agree on the pickles.  I haven't found those anywhere and do miss them.

I did like your price on Lucky Charms though.  It's a better price than I've seen here.  I've always refused to buy Lucky Charms at the prices the little American shops sell them for--spending that much on cereal just seems ridiculous, but your price is better. 

I've always been sad I can't find Cap'n Crunch.  I like the plain one, not the one with berries.  I might be tempted out of my resolve not to pay a ridiculous price for cereal if someone brought Cap'n Crunch over. :) 

Oh, and I think the grocery section should have Triscuits, Cheetos, and Fritos.

Talc-free powder products (usually corn-starch based).  Baby powder would do, but even non-talc based body powders would be cool.  My husband uses them, but talc sets off his asthma/is potentially carcinogenic.
