What American foods can you NOT get in Australia?

Question

I'm sending my friend in Australia a care package, and I want to include some candy and foods that she cannot get there. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

You are able to buy twinkies here, I have bought them myself.  Just have to hunt a little for them.

I found you can pretty much buy anything in Australia that is available in the USA. Reeces peanut butter cups may be a little harder to come buy, but australian chocolate tastes better than Hersheys anyway.

Maybe ask your friend what she misses most about being away.  Easier to find out that way

Answer 2

Almost everything can be found here, but not in the quantities that you see there. We have our own brands for those things like biscuits and lollies.

Maybe send some iconic american brands like your mustard sauce etc.

We have Coke, and Orios like everyone else, so it'll have to be something that only americans eat a lot, like mayo and mustard. we use butter and tomato sauce instead.

Answer 3

Pop tarts. Apparently they were sold in Australia for a short period of time and then discontinued in 2005. I must've missed them because I never saw any when they were supposedly being sold! They look yum.

American lollies and chocolates. You have a lot of brands that we don't (and vice versa). I was looking through this list; http://www.usafoods.com.au/c10/confectio...

Those Reeses things look interesting, i've heard about them a lot. What are they? It's not actually full of peanut butter is it?

Two American foods that i've heard about bloody everywhere, are Twinkies and candy corn. They would be good to send your friend.

We have some foods that you do.. like Oreos, M&Ms, skittles, hersheys. So don't send them.

Answer 4

You will need to declare any food you send to Australian customs :)

Answer 5

you wont be able too get anything in australia unless its well wraped
