Shops and Food

[Heather Halstead]

I always think about the places we shopped and food we ate(that I usually didn't like)

My fondest shopping memories are the big Sunday Markets, Top Shop, Peterborough Mall, Boots and the news stands for sweets

Does anyone remember those yummy sticky candies called Snap Crackles I think, and Hedgehog crisps?

I have Fish Fry all the time over here, and not once has it been close to as good. And of course they bring me Ketchup instead of Vinegar :(
If any of you live near the store call WORLD MARKET, its down south, they have an aisle of English Candy. They don't have everything but they have Cadbury Flakes, Toblerone and much more!

There is a store here in Cincinnati called Jungle Jim's. They have almost everything you want. including Cauburry Flakes (which my kids don't like...hey, more for me!!!) But I bet thay have a web site if you google them!!! Have fun!

You are welcome...I have bought stuff from the site before....the guy that owns it is very nice.......went to my parents for Christmas and everyone has Cadbury's chocolate and Walker's crisps in their stocking.

awesome..my mom already ordered PG tips. She loves them!

we ( sorry the english) as far as i know no longer sell hedgehog flavour crisps, although i don't know why! LOL
although you remember what you used to eat in England and places you used to shop, in effect i am in the sam position but not what english food i ate or enlish shops, as i am enlish and am still here, but i remember the hot dogs in the place near the BX and shopping in the BX i loved it! it's been almost 17 years since i even set foot on Lakenheath Base and yet it is only miles up the road from where i live. i miss my school days so much. the only worries were when your next assignment had to be in. those where the days.

[Heather Halstead]

Maybe you can answer the myster. There was a candy there i just loved. I swear it was called a snap crackle.
It was flat and long like a taffy, pink and had a powder inside. I would die for some and i've looked all over the internet. Maybe I have the name wrong or they're gone.
When we were there they were 5p each. Have any idea what i'm talking about?

[Sean Corrigan -90]

I know EXACTLY what you are talking about.......my sister and I would get them all the time in the small english store outside of base housing across street from Lakenheath and also when we were in Newmarket. Killing me to know name now though. but I have a new mission lol

[Sean Corrigan -90]

Yes, it was SNAP AND CRACKLE......a fruit flavored chewy bar with snap/crackle powder in it
