Inspired by a thread about taking bacon to Turkey, here are 5 foods food I would miss, if I lived in a different country and it could not be bought there (in order of importance).
1) Marmite
2) Cathedral City Cheese
3) Branston Pickle
4) Bacon (for those bacon sandwiches that are used as hangover cure!)
5) Thick cut marmalade

(1) Anchor Butter
(2) Marks & Spencer White Stilton with Cranberries
(2) Coleman's English Mustard
(4) Green & Blacks Organic Chocolate (any flavour!)
(5) Jacksons of Piccadilly Green Tea with Lemon
(I have tried ALL the other and nothing else is so good). This one is a SERIOUS addiction - I would not cope without them

My list is short:
- white cheese
I eat it almost everyday.
Maybe its combinations can be listed:
- tomatoes, olive oil and white cheese (with or without tea)
- water melon and white cheese
- melon and white cheese
- simit and white cheese (&tea)
probably rakı and white cheese is a great taste but I don't drink rakı.
