You can sometimes get sprouts in Y Not or sometimes my wife brings them back from Dalaguete. They are in a jar and they are strong. Unfortunately, my daughter likes them so I have to get more supplies.

Pies, sausages rolls, pork pies, scotch eggs, Greggs chicken slice, Iceland 1 pound pizzas, hellmans mayonaise, chocolate digestives, cheese, sausages, bacon, heinz baked beans. Probably a lot more haha.

To be fair I could probably find a lot of it here but would be too expensive so I just avoid lol.

I'd love to have a good USDA ribeye steak, medium rare with a baked potato smothered in US sour cream with chives. There are places in Manila where you can get it but you either need to be rich or a politician to be able to afford it.:sad:

One my holidays there I could not find any nice bread.

I miss the good bread too but luckily the place where we buy Pandasal uses a little Turkish flour in their mix. Not too bad. The Gardenia wheat bread will do in a pinch for ham sandwiches tho.:tongue:

I was very surprised to find sirloin and T-bone steaks at SM Ecoland the other day. They were small but real. They also had some big hunks of sirloin. I was tempted to ask the boy to cut me a 1-inch steak from one piece but didn't. I got some giant beef "cubes" that I'll cut up smaller and cook with cubed pork, sausages and black beans for a make-shift feijoada. I like the BBQ sausages from Swiss Deli here in Davao.

I usually buy Johnsonville smoked sausage for my breakfast meat. Either that or have bacon. Longganisa is good but I literally burp it ALL day and I can't stand that anymore.

I suppose I miss decent tomatoes the most.
