Not sure why it's funny or unusual, you can buy just about any British food/drinks here...

because this is Spain maybe? lol, it's very unusual.

I was just asking how many recognise the products. Some are American, not British. I've never seen most of them...

All of the Fantas are american mate, unless the Fruit Twist! Canada Dry is also North American, right? Or the UK also produces it?

Pepsi Max Cherry, 7UP Cherry too. Although they mixed the products in this stand, I don't know why, as there are another bigger stands nearby with just North American food and beverages.

The cans are noted with 12 fl oz, which is slightly bigger than our standards in Europe: 33 cl (12 fl oz = 355ml, so 35.5 cl)

Pepperidge Farm cookies are from the US too. And I think that all of the others are British! The Loacker biscuits are from Bolzano, Italy lol. Not sure why they mixed up them here.


What about those beers? Are they good? I'd might try those. Ruddles County, Old Speckled Hen, Belhaven Black, Wychwood Hobgoblin and London Pride. Warszawa, nei, do you recognise any products??

Yeah, but i'm referring to actual foods produced for the American market, e.g Dunkin Donuts, Gatorade, Hostess etc.

There are essentially no European products here of any kind. Only American+Chinese. Seems like most of the supermarkets here are Chilean

Polish items in the supermarket would be good, especially for the perogies and kielbasa.

Here we have lots of foreign stores with foreign food:

English, Romanian, Bulgarian, Russian, Polish, German, Italian, Latino, Moroccan, Pakistani, Italian, French...

The most common are English, Romanian, Bulgarian and Russian. Latino groceries can be found in almost any "locutorio" which is a place maded for international calls and for surfing the internet, which also sell basic groceries and snacks, cold drinks... 99% of those places are managed by foreign people, being the majority Latinos followed by Pakistanis.

I was surprised to see that big amount in a Carrefour. English stuff is common in English grocery stores (most of whom are obviously ran by English people) but not in a hypermarket or a supermarket. Last time when I visitted an English shop I was like 12 years old!

American food is very rare although there are many Internet stores intended for buying American food in Spain, some of them even have shops in Spain.
