    Stag (cant remember if its cider or lager, think cider)

    No white pudding here or anywhere outside Ireland from my experience. I just get funny looks if I ask !

    In Western France people don't believe that you can get white pudding anywhere else besides where they live either :)

    Stag? Doubt you can get that in Ireland any more can you ?

    I use to be a barman for several years and remember the stuff. Thought it was Irish aswell. Only ever served maybe half a dozen in 3 years.

    Nah, I picked a very expensive pack of Carrolls in Munich two years ago.

    Also, Club Shandy, but I can't find that here anymore either.

    Probably already been said, but Ballymaloe Country Relish :rolleyes:

    I was gonna say Barry's Tea also, but apparently it's readily available in America...

    Real flavours of crisps is my main gripe though, along with chippers (although i suppose we have to exclude Britain)

    Daniel O'Donnell CD.

    I don't think he's infected anything but our fair isle yet....

    No, he was on TOTP. And I remember staying at a hotel in Cornwall, and this auld chambermaid came up and said to me and my parents, "You Irish?" "Yes." "Oh, do you know who I love? Daniel O'Donnell".

    I think cidona can only be bought here.

    Yes, yes, I think in the UK, in the sixties/seventies, it was sold there. But not now.

    rancheros.... havent seen them anywhere

    They've stopped selling them abroad. A mate of mine from England was moaning about "they don't make Rancheros anymore." I said, "yeah, they do."
