Are there any 'regional' foods you an not buy where you live ?

WLM21

I am just wondering whether there are any food related items, which are only sold in certain regions which you would like to buy.

I was born in Northern Ireland and as a kid remember my parents missing potato bread and soda bread, which were not available in England. Whenever we traveled to NI my parents would stock up. Luckily both are now easily bought here in England.

However !! there is still one item 'a Veda loaf' which is still only available in Northern Ireland. I even wrote to the bakers (Sunblest) who said it wouldn't sell here.

No doubt there are other similar products, that folk would love to buy, but can not do so.

Kosher food items are not available here in Bexley so I get them from east London.

I'm not sure which area they hail from but plenty of Seabrooks crisps here in the south (too many in fact:o).


I miss cockles and laverbread. Jars of cockles aren't the same as fresh ones from the market.


Pleasing to see that welshcakes and bara brith available in Aldi.
