You'd think that, however, when in USA you need to go to an IHOP (International House of Pancakes) & order a pancake stack complete with strips of crispy bacon, and maple syrup - it's a real eye opener, simply delicious!!

Been there, done that on international drive ,orlando. Still wrong. 🤣🤣 And gravy isn't gravy unless it's bisto.  Grits and gravy!! Really. . Oh and a biscuit is not a scone like effort with "gravy that's not gravy"

Yeah, seen that at Walmart in Haines city and rounds of ammunition just on the shelf , all calibers. We spent ages looking at all the guns and ammo. Big knives too.

I remember being in a Walmarts in Detroit in the 80s and being fascinated by the 'caged' area in the center of the store where the guns were then kept. I had a good look around when approached by the sales guy. I explained that I'd never seen so many guns in one place, and when I told him I was from Belfast, he said it was unlikely I could get one past customs LOL

OK guys, search is over LOL Bought these today, just had them for tea. Without doubt, the best chips I've ever had! Really crunch crispy outside, soft fluffy inside, and so tasty. Now, the sad thing is that they are made by a NI firm called, 'Mash Direct', so have no idea what their availability is like in GB. If you see them, I can highly recommend them...

we're only allowed small amounts here in England 🤣

I've never noticed them before. I've just put a pack to try on my delivery next week.
