    Does anyone know of a place I can get a hamper of Irish junk foods (Taytos, etc) sent to the US? Preferably one I could create myself a bit- a lot of them have stuff in them that the person it's for wouldn't eat. Some of them are just insanely expensive!!

    Any suggestions greatly appreciated!!

    It's usually better to just make one yourself. I'm currently putting together a package for a friend in Illinois so I might be able to help.
    Go for things that are uniquely Irish like Tayto crisps or Ballymaloe Relish.
    My mother's making her own special Hennessy truffles to send over so there's an added element of home made goodness.

    I've used them in the past when I had money;) Also used Kilkenny shop - think they do hampers aswel.
