That's where it was in my ASDA but I asked someone working in the cheese section restocking an she told me they stopped carrying for some reason she didn't know why though.

I have looked in the deli and regular cheese sections of at least three huge Tescos and no joy.  I think DH was skeptical that Monterey Jack even existed until I showed him some in the US.  I will not lose heart however and try ASDA and Morrisons.  Thanks for the tips!

My local Sainsburys has Skippy Peanut Butter.

I mainly miss sweets (or at least I am right now after a stressful day at work!)

Lemon Heads
Reese's pieces
Salt water taffy
Sour Patch Kids (especially the watermelons!)
Twizzlers
Now & Laters
Hershey's Heath Bar
York Peppermint Patties

I agree with this entire list!

I must add I would kill for some flamin' hot cheetos. Yes, I know they turn your fingers red for two days, hey, it's part of the fun ;)

Ooh, and hot tamales (the cinnamon candy ones)
trident cinnamon gum
Cinnamon bears
(can you tell I'm craving cinnamon tonight?)
The little animal crackers that have frosting and little candy balls over them http://www2.kelloggs.com/ProductDetail.aspx?id=17311

I had read that circus animal cookies were discontinued, but it seems Kelloggs picked them back up!!!!

I'll also second the salt water taffy--Sweets in Salt Lake City makes probably the biggest supply.

Yeah I second the green chili suggestion. Or canned salsa verde. I miss being able to get hatch chilis.

It sounds weird but I also miss the pasta roni brands of dry pastas. Quick for a side or a veggie mix in.

Also ghiradelli made an awesome brownie mix.....Yummy.

I saw that, but I prefer the texture and sugar-freeness of dentyne or trident.  I do go for Big Red now and again though.

Also ghiradelli made an awesome brownie mix.....Yummy.
Side note: did you know you can get the Ghiradelli brownie mix at Costco here?  We buy it regularly and keep it in our storage for those unplanned chocolate cravings.  It is amazing.

I don't see green chiles on your list.  Is this a "not possible" item?  I have paid up to $50 for shipping for 9 small cans of them before.  It would be wonderful to be able to get them here.  I use them in so many recipe.  As I see, there are a few others here interested as well.

Mother's brand of frosted circus-animal cookies are pretty good.  I get a craving for them on occasion.  I'm in the US, so I can get them easily.

@lisapower: We can get "Old El Paso Green Chillies" if that's the same item?

Also, who likes Apple Jacks? We're thinking of putting them on promotion today!
