Places like Dundrum Shopping Centre even Grafton and Henry Street but then again that has more of a worldwide feel than a specially forgein feel. You'd probably find the same shops in any large city in Spain and you would say it doesn't have a real Spanish feel. These kind of places have no individuality and feel the same wherever you go they will never fit in.

Food companies whose products come wholly or partly from elsewhere or are only packed in Ireland or who no longer have a base here and just trade in their 'Irishness'.

Siucra sugar (There hasn't been a sugar industry here for years thanks to scandalous cute hoorism)
Donegal Catch (contents could well come from waters off Chile or Scotland)
Lyons Tea (processed and packed in UK)
Jacobs Fig Rolls (production in Malta)
Shaws Ham (Could come from Denmark, Netherlands, Scotland, wherever)

They were a real band. I have one of their records. I didn't intentionally buy it, I bought a bundle of records Sellotaped together in a charity shop years ago and this was in with them.

You're right. We're just a bunch of immigrants.

Meanwhile, the latest research in 2018 suggests that the Irish are most closely related to people in North West France (Brittany where a Celtic language has traditionally been spoken) and in Western Norway. Interestingly, where earlier studies didn't find much impact of Viking DNA among the modern Irish, a recent study suggests there may have been more influence than perviously thought. You can read more details here: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-017-17124-4

What we can take from all of this is that, although the Irish today feel part of a single group united by cultural and national identity, this culture and identity is ultimately founded on waves of migration connecting the island to the wider world of European peoples and beyond.
