Mountain Dew
Cadbury's Top Deck (bloody Australians >.>)
Butterfingers

Peasant - I think you can get Quark in either Aldi or Lidl.

I remember Top Deck! Milka have a variant of hte theme too. Both are amazing and wanted.

Dunkin Donuts or Crispy Creme. Want!

Also Twinkies. Wonder what the immortal food tastes like.

Krispy Kreme are godly donuts.

Also, Vanilla Coke and Vanilla Pepsi. They rock.

Hersheys Kisses (haven't found em here - yet)

A roomba!

BaconZombie · 09-12-2008 10:02PM

I only seen one shop selling a "shop used" old style roomba for +200€ of that you can get a the newest model from the UK.

Actually yeah, I havent had one in years but that would be a great idea.

I would have said vanilla coke but they discontinued the line about 2 years ago That was good stuff.

How about some decent Ice Cream? Before Aldi and Lidl came about, you couldnt find anything but a cardboard box full of artificially flavored vanilla shyte. I mean, you couldnt even get vanilla right. Thats just sad.

Captain Morgans Rum and Coke. Tastes the exact same with the added benefit of alcohol.

Crunch bars - just can't find them anywhere anymore:(

hullaballoo · 09-12-2008 10:14PM

A lot of this stuff is in the soft drinks bracket! Any enterprising boardsies about? Or, anyone with some loose venture capital they can give me?

I just thought of another one I occasionally crave: Vimto.

Demeyes · 09-12-2008 10:19PM

I'd love to get some Beef jerky here.
I'm fairly sure I saw Vimto and cans of Dr.Pepper in Dublin recently - on the way down towards Heuston station near the Guiness place.

ShagNastii · 09-12-2008 10:22PM

I must add for anyone who hasn't had it please avoid root beer, It smells and tastes like Deep heat

emeraldstar · 09-12-2008 10:30PM

Lucky Charms.

You can actually buy them in Fallon & Byrne but for like €8 or €10 or something stupid like that.

dmaccamd · 09-12-2008 10:33PM

Dunk 'n donuts, big bars of ritter sport in all varieties and 500ml cans of coke!!

Spoody · 09-12-2008 10:40PM

Secret Bars- don't know if they're on sale anywhere but they were the most delicious chocolate bars around. In the mid-90s.

emeraldstar · 09-12-2008 10:45PM

Oh also! All the wonderfully wonderfully wonderful Ben & Jerry flavours they have in the States but don't sell over here. I'd live in the US for Ben & Jerry's alone.

Quaker Granola Bars too. The variety pack = nyom!

'Bubblemint' flavour Wrigley's gum. Just loved it.

Cool_CM · 09-12-2008 10:53PM

A proper Döner Kebab, with proper sauces, meat that hasn't been reboiled and not served in a pitta bread, like this one

Tacho Bell is rubbish!

But I'd love to see an In-N-Out Burger is quality! I can't believe there's none, whoever opens the first one here and does it right will make a fortune

But in the future, all restaurants are Taco Bell!

+1 for the fizzy Vimto, hadn't had it in years, went to Majorca in October, found some. Fecking delicious stuff. I'd like to try mountain dew. Also, I'll agree with Taco Bell, and add a RadioShack.

All of the varieties of Sam Adams Beer. I've only seen the Lager and Double Bock here. there are at least 21 varieties, so I'm missing 19 or more.

Linku · 10-12-2008 12:04AM

Tango has almost completely disappeared from shops here, there's one shop on the quays near Tara St station that usually has it, but it used to be widely available.
Still don't know why everyones saying Dr Pepper, it's really not hard to find (just bought some!)

You can get the black lager in Molloys. Had some recently, very tasty it was.

Soda Farls they sell in the north are great

Zynks · 10-12-2008 12:20AM

Haven't seen any wishes for stuff from non English-speaking countries so far. There is so much I can think of:

- Salgadinhos (Brazil)
- Spicy prawns - for breakfast! (Malaysia)
- Fajitas - proper ones (eh...Mexico)

Man, now I'm hungry. Fridge, here I come!

Aw, my God I forgot about coxinha! Greatest of all Brazilian snack foods.

I also want Argentinian steak, by Christ it's good, Quilmes and Antartica Beer.

a satellite phone.

don't think anyone sells them in ireland, and if they do they are bound to be 2-3x the going rate.

Tar.Aldarion · 10-12-2008 12:37AM

Good fake rasher. I hear some American brands are nice.

I got it in Molloys in Clonsilla, but I assume they stock it in other branches

TheMilkyPirate · 10-12-2008 12:46AM

You can buy dr.pepper in nearly all the shops around my are.

Ruu_Old · 10-12-2008 12:48AM

I sent over some Lucky Charms to a boardsie who needed his fix, shipping is expensive though.

I've heard of a good Canadian fake rasher brand under the name of Avril Lavaigne.:pac:

There is a brand of Finnish chocolate which has raspberry pieces in it that I crave. Can't find it or an equivalent in Ireland.
