Buying American Food Here In Uk
« on: December 14, 2004, 09:17:02 AM »
Just wanted to say that the post in here have helped me a great deal since im still a newbie.  I miss American food so much and I would go to different stores seeing if I could find different items.  After looking in these forums I went to Sainsbury's and bought some Pinto beans.  I had bought some online from a company called Flava.  I also saw where they have a crispy creme in London, havent had a donut in almost 6 months im deprived.  Miss ranch dressing Tescos has some but not the same has Hidden Valley.  Is there anywhere you can buy sausage like we have in america?
I have lived in England for 5 months.  Dont really know anyone, im from the state of Georgia im a southerngirl.  Have two small boys and a British hubby. But I think England is kool its just so different takes some getting use to.  Ummm thats about it :)

sausage.. like America..not really.. you can get  'better' ones  from a  butcher..and pay more..but  not really like we  are used  to. to be honest  I  grew out of  liking sausage living here..  How can I even EXPLAIN what Italian sausage is like?? all i know is that when I go back to the states I hope I get my fill.  sigh* ::)

p.s.- I've also been here  for  5 months..  hope you are adjusting well..

There's a brand of sausage called Richard Hull - Safeways/Morrison's carries them - and they do beef sausages. Mexican Salsa, Black Pepper, Tomato....not quite like American sausage but not the bland bread filled pork ones either. I quite like them.

For sausage like what we are used to, try the asian supermarkets, or the halal meat centers, I got some from one of those places, (granted they were frozen) but they were just exactly what I wanted with my eggs in the morning! They won't be pork though, I bought beef.
