Dundee Orange marmalade.

That is all.

There's a farm in Colonia where I get a home-made orange marmalade very similar to Dundee. It is made from locally grown bitter oranges and sugar - nothing else. I could bring some if you want - the last jar I bought was something like three dollars.

Highlights or options hot chocolate sachets (esp. white chocolate

Pataks's lime pickle and aubergine pickle
Monster Munch, any crisps or tortilla chips

A nice pint of john smiths!!!!

 

[Alzinho]

yoghurts

Good call!
Still never found natural yoghurt here. In fact never found a yoghurt that wasn't 50% sugar.

Anyone who could provide proper tea in good tea bags for a reasonable price and crisps with some flavour on them would do really well!

I also agree with the person who said curry powder. It’s amazing how you take such basic supermarket products for granted!

There's definitely evaporated milk. I use it to make torta de tres leches, unless British evaporated milk is different. I'm sure I bought it at the Carrefour or Disco.

Well, you're going to have to come up here to Palermo! You can pick up your veg at the same time. There is wonderful natural no sugar added yogurt at the diatetica on Malabia between Charcas & Guemes. Mirasol I think it's called.

What is artisan food?

food products made by small producers as opposed the huge companies.

How cute! Do the packages come for the US? How long do they take to get here & what's the deal with customs? Or wait.... I've been reading your site: Are the goodies made in BA? Confused.
