I jus remembered! I love those huge, salty, freshly made breaded PRETZELS that are so common in the US but never found in the UK. They are great with coffee or tea.

If you are having problems finding places to eat out similar to US, the best place to try is TGI Fridays.

One of the snacks I found thaI love is the white chocolate covered pretzels, lovely sweet and salty.

I've been asked to bring back some beef jerky sor an american college. Just thought, would this be allowed as I'm sure you are not supposed to take meat across borders.[?]
