I'm realllly lucky. Theres 6 supermarkets all within a 10 min drive from me, including the biggest Tesco in Northern Ireland) and so many Chinese/Indian takeaways and Italian Restaurants that heres to many to count lol But two things I wish they did:

1. Better Greek food. It all comes in jars pickled in Brine and everything is soggy/salty/tastless. I'd also love to see sweet/savoury cheese pies, courgette flowers (For fresh dalmadas) and tasikhi. <<All Greek btw

2. Japanese/Asian food. Everything seems to be Chinese/Indian, but theres far more. Theres a few small Thai ranges around here, thats it. I'd LOVE to see more Thai, Korean and Japanese foods.

Oh and Pim's biscuits. They sell them in France and they're kinda like a jaffa cake but so so so much better. They come in some lush flavors too, Pear, Raspberry Lemon. The chocolate is much darker than a Jaffa cake and its much more delicate.

I'm nearly certain that they sell Milka in Ireland.

Portugal-these crisps called 'Cheetah's' I think which I wish they sold here,also all sorts of Quorn,Hit biscuits,Lays crisps,Um Bongo drink,Estrellais cereal,chips from a restaurant called Marufo's. Oooh and this pizza from this restaurant called Casanostra.

they sell milka in some places round here, too

also, lays are basically the same as walkers, because theyre owned by the same people, but they just do different flavours. In greece we had pizza flavour. it actually tasted like feet

Supernoodles = gross, they're too thick. I prefer the cheap ones that are stringier

Anyway I LOVE curry
