Say like if we have M&M's here, do they have them in Australia which I'm pretty sure they do. I ask this because there's a good possibility that I'll be going next summer and I want to bring the family some food that they've never had before. You could suggest some other stuff that you think I can give as a gift if you don't know about any food. Just something simple. Thanks in advance.

  1. Ok here we go, I somehow got myself onto a candy blog from america.. And theres alot of stuff that we dont have here. We call candy here lollies by the way.. and yes, we do have M&Ms.

    We dont have hersheys chocolates.. You can buy them in speciallty stores, but not in supermarkets.. To be honest, its rank.. It doesnt taste good like the chocolate we have here..

    We dont have Dr Pepper, we did a few years ago but it was pulled of the shelves because its disgusting and doesnt really fit our tastebuds i guess, We also dont have grape flavored soda... We dont have peanut butter cups, or chocolates with peanut butter in them.. Its pretty disgusting aswell.

    Just bring random stuff that you dont think we'll have here. Most likely, your family hasnt tried them.. If they have, then oh well :)

    Oh oh and some of your snacks, we dont have lol

    we dont have peeps.. twislers..umm .. Well, thats all i know, i'm not familiar with American lollies So just bring whatever you think we dont have :) Everyone loves lollies.  


  2. KOOL AID!

  3. i live in australia. we have tim tams, which no other country has. they're a dessert kind of. a chocolate covered cookie sandwich that has mousse in the middle. we have vegemite, which most non australians think is most disgusting, but they're not doing it right- toast, lots of butter, a smear of vegemite. we do have mexican and reece's. but they're hard to find, especially reece's peanut butter cups, which are my favourite. i hope this was at least a little helpful. :)  

  4. I know for sure of one food that is non existent in Australia and that is pepperoni of all things. Mexican foods are very rare.

    I would say candies that you don't find, but can order is Sees Candies.  

  5. I think Hershey's, for a while it did, but it didn't sell well on the Aussie market and they took it off.

    Baby Ruth, Butterfinger, Butter Finger Crisp,Pay Day Avalanche, Reese Peanut Butter Cups, Reesesticks, Take 5 chocolates,Tootsie Roll original, Wonka, all these nope.

    I don't think we have DR Pepper.

    I need to go now, when I think of more I will post more.
