Wow Titch, those prices are crazy high!! I only looked at snacks, but you can't go wrong with Cool Ranch, or Nacho Cheese Doritos or regular crunchy Cheeto's.

I'm with you Matt, really anything which ends in 'tos is a pretty good bet. Stubb's and Sweet Baby Ray's are pretty good in the BBQ sauce dept. and I put old bay seasoning on absolutely everything.
If you can't get Reese's peanut butter cups down there than IMHO those are a must have.

Crazy prices.
Sioux City Sarsaparilla is a nice treat. Cant believe a 12 pack of soda is 15 bucks. We probably buy them for 3-4 bucks a 12pack. Franks Red Hot is good. I really like the Valentina Salsa Picante. It's a nice heat. Tony Chachere's Original Creole Seasoning is good stuff. The Weber Kansas City Style seasoning is pretty decent. Good on pork butts and chicken. Their Montreal Steak seasoning is ok too on beef. Pick up a can of chipotle peppers in Adobo sauce. Maybe some dried Ancho, Arbol, Chipotle powder.

Maybe some condiments, sauces and spices because they stretch, but I would never pay those prices for junk food.

+1 on the frank's hot sauce, it's good on just about everything. If you like insanely hot stuff, Dave's gourmet ghost peppers will do the trick.

I found a bunch of things worth trying at some time and also saw a lot of things that only a homesick ex-pat 'merican would want.
Reese's peanut butter cups Louisianna hot sauce Tabasco chipotle sauce Sriracha hot chili sauce Cholula hot sauce Tapatio Salsa picante Wick Fowler's chili mix Talk of Texas hot okra pickles Bruce's sweet potato pancake mix Some brand of pure maple syrup Tony Chachere's original creole seasoning Slap Ya Mama cajun seasoning Gebhardt chili powder Old Bay Lawry's seasoning salt Pickapeppa sauce Embasa chipotle peppers in adobo sauce Stubb's BBQ sauce Sweet Baby Rays Sadly it looks like all the Bush's bbq/grillin' beans are out of stock. If you have Kraft Velveeta cheese available down under or maybe more likely a cheese with similar properties. Mild, Easily meltable, remains creamy after melting Rotel tomatos with green chilis Fritos corn chips Since they are in this store there may not be a proper Aussie counterpart. Jif Peanut butter either variety Welch's concord grape jelly or Smuckers - any jelly/jam you like is fine, these two would be my pick from the ones available A peanut butter and jelly sandwich is likely as all American as a vegemite sandwich is Australian. I found it odd that Grandma's molasses was listed. I would have expected molasses to be more commonly available than a quick Google would make it appear to be available. Grandma's is very good on 'merican style biscuits w/ butter or margarine. Nice on dinner rolls too. Sadly golden syrup is difficult to find over here.

I kind of rushed through the site, but found a few items I like.
Oreo and Nutter Butter cookies are American icons. Same with Goldfish. Jolly Rancher candy and Jelly Belly jelly beans are awesome candies. Rotel Tomatoes and Chiles are great to mix into beans or blend with cheese for a queso dip. Old Bay Seasoning is a staple for boiling seafood. Louisiana Hot Sauce, Tabasco Sauce, and Frank's Hot Sauce are staples, too. Zatarain's Red Beans and Rice is pretty good. And, deguerre will say otherwise, but Jiffy Corn Muffins are a childhood favorite of mine. CD |
