Noooo My Faith In Ice Cream is Shattered!!!

Julesie

Gather round children for this is a tale of immense woe.

I moved to London last October, coming in to the depths of winter I had no need for ice creams or ice based lollies. But alas as the warmer summer months roll round, I have discovered that all the brands I know and love are in fact Ireland only creations and are no where to be seen on the mean streets of London.....


....no Wibbly Wobbly Wonder
....no Loop the Loop
....no Brunch
....no Ice Berger
....no Rocket

.... the list goes on. I had just about come to terms with the shocking favouritism of sweet popcorn to our beloved salted. But this, this is just too much to bear.

So for those of you exiled in far off lands what are the things you've realised are Irish specific, now that you've tried and failed to find them locally?

Mother of God. That sounds as bad as penal times. Good luck with the hunt.

They're quear odd with their flavours alright. They consider 'ready salted' crip-ips a rocking good challenge to the tastebuds.

Am suffering the same fate as my fellow leixlipudlian
Seriously why sweet popcorn? Ick! Can't find manhatten popcorn anywhere.
Distinct lack of my favourite lollies.
Have found an Irish pub nearby that sells tayto! mmm!
Oh London, why dost thou torture me so??
