I am generally a fan of British supermarkets, and British foodstuffs in general. For one, there are no decent sized tranches of bacon available here. Only, sometimes, the local supermarket as a single thick tranch in a packet. The normal bacon is all so thin it's translucent. In the UK, you have normal amounts of bacon, and normal sized tranches.
In Holland, the only canned meat they have is Goulash or Meatballs in Tomato Sauce (I can't taste the difference). I, being a fan of meaty snacks, always enjoy the canned meat in England, where it actually has some variety. Then there is the larger amount of good sugar free food available, and the odd tastes of patato chips (though I still can't eat vinegar or prawn cocktail).

Ok, where do you shop? The 'WeHateDecentFood'-store? Seriously... Wherever you shop, go shop somewhere else cuz over here we have canned meat in about 600 variaties. There are entire shelves with that stuff here at the Super de Boer
Also, bacon... Enuf of that
I generally make bacon&eggs for breakfast
Can't have a enough bacon
Also, not many sugar free things? Do you even look for stuff your store? Seriously. Besides, unless you do all the shopping yourself at times you really don't know what's for sale
I remember when I went grocery shopping for the first time after getting my own place. I found stuff I never knew existed
And when our car isn't filled with canned meat and frozen bacon, I fill it up with paperback books, costing only L5,99 in the UK, but 20 Euro's in Holland.
You guys are really not buying the right stuff at the right place
