Tango Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Most supermarkets here have some British stuff in their foreign food aisles, but it's normally limited to extremely expensive jars of marmite and McVities biscuits! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. The Brit supermarket about half an hour away has started delivering to Salobreña but they charge €12 to deliver which I thinks a bit steep. But good news the 100mls liquid security restrictions are going to be phased out over the next couple of years and you'll be able to take what liquids you like in your hand luggage. The end of decanting stuff into miniature bottles that don't hold enough will be over. Well for the flying out of Britain part at least. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the whole food thing in the UK a joke on foreigners? I still have vivid memories of the first bike trip I organised to the uk with 4 or 5 mates from here. We visited my parents, my mum cooked and we had hours of fun trying to explain "Toad in the Hole" ( Le crapaud dans le trou) before moving on to cheesecake, which is neither cake mor cheese... 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
