Canadian/American Food

Just thought I'd help out any North American's living in Oz. One of the things I hated about living here was that I missed so many of the foods I was used to in Canada. I ended up finding this web site that catered to expats living here. The food is shipped from Melbourne - so it's not expensive like the sites that you have to get food shipped in from the US and Canada. The site is www.usafoods.com.au . Now I can site and have my Caesar's on a Friday night and my buffalo wings as well!

A girlfriend just told me about a site for all our fav's like Tim Horton's coffee, PC Cookies, Twizzlers etc. even has Miracle Whip. Check it out : www.missyoucanada.ca

You guys are the best. I'm on my way to check out these sites. That's one of the things I missed the most as well. I remember when I first moved here. Shopping would almost have me in tears. I miss my Canadian food so BAD!!

I miss the Oatmeal Stout beer from the micro-brews in Victoria..mmmm. If I only I could order some of those!

Absolutely love this forum board and now I can get some very missed and dearly beloved Root Beer!
WhoooooooooHooooooooooo!

Thank you all!

Hiya I'm an imposter from the UK section of the board but I noticed that this website was advertising shipping to Australia, New Zealand and Africa too. it's missing my fave tho (Original Kraft Dinner) but its got some stuff that I didn't see on the other wesbtie missyoucanada.ca so thought I'd share. Think the prices may be real high, but for those of you not minding the extra cost to get a peice of home (including beers from what I seen browsing. Moosehead beer Mmmmm Mmmm) here you are:

hahaha got there omg ...I want to go home and get some real food as in junk food lololol

do they have graham crackers? how can I make nanaimo bars without graham crackers? cant find any here in Auckland. help

They sure do. check in the food/cookies section, they have HoneyMaid Graham Wafers for £4.50 ea (I did say its expensive!). although never tried making nanaimo bars myself so dont know if thats exactly what you need. Mind you, there was also a 'nanaimo bar' mix in the food/baking section dont know if you have to add your own graham's or not though *lol*

P.S. talking about the www.canadashop.co.uk website in my post

another place to get graham crackers (and all the other canadian stuff) is canadian comforts. the forum isn't letting me post a link but if you do a yahoo or google search for canadian comforts its right at the top of the list. they're located in melbourne and ship worldwide
