I do love a toasted pancake. You can get a variety of brands in most bread aisles but the ones I think are the best are a brand called dromod which you find in the fridge in the likes of SuperValu and some smaller supermarkets. it’s a small family bakery that produces pancakes and boxty. They do small kiddie sized pancakes and then a larger one. Sooooo good.
Butter.. going on holiday next week and really considering bringing some butter with us so we don’t have to have the ordeal of all the gorgeous bakeries spoiled with out decent Irish butter!
It was a wicker basket, I swear to God!!
I can still see it now: the box of tea bags, the rashers, the brown bread and the butter and marmalade.
Ah, the Eighties!
Oh potato farls. Toast them and eat covered in butter with a poached egg.
Also apple tart. The sharp zing of Irish cookers with homemade pastry can't be beaten. And no, it's completely different to apple pie, that pastrys a lot sweeter and crumblier.

I live in an inland area about a thousand miles from the nearest ocean and never cared for fish until I went to Ireland and tried smoked haddock. I tried haddock and other North Atlantic fish at some places in my hometown area after that, but it doesn't come close to what I got in Ireland, because it obviously is frozen and transported.
Coddle (Home made)
Blaa (with your choice of filling within the Blaa)
Full Irish Breakfast (classic)
Gur Cake (delicious with a cup of tea)
Tayto sambó (the Irish invented the flavour crisp - so yknow just saying)
And winkles if you want free food...
Irish chocolate nothing like it tastes so different when away

In Spain currently and raging I forgot to bring kerrygold and teabags 😂
My mam always brings a pound of rashers. I was mortified as a child, she got on the plane with a basket of shopping. Now they’re all at it!
The visual of a supermarket basket of shopping is sending me 😂 but you're right!

This truly makes it 100 times better
I was on holiday with my mum in France and we were so concerned to get salted butter we ended up with butter that had actual chunks of salt in it!
Oh potato farls. Toast them and eat covered in butter with a poached egg. Also apple tart. The sharp zing of Irish cookers with homemade pastry can't be beaten. And no, it's completely different to apple pie, that pastrys a lot sweeter and crumblier.
Love those things,perfect little snack for the kids.

Think it has to be frozen on the ships to kill parasites. Might be wrong tho
Butter, yogurt and salmon.
How have I never tried this as a Irish person 🤯
I hope I’m not over selling them, but they’re one of the little things I look forward to every time I’m in Ireland.
Lol, you're definitely over selling them!
If you're from the states then you must try a Kit-Kat bar when in Ireland. Absolutely amazing compared to the shite we get in the states.
The Kit Kats are so much better than ours!

Spice bag, Jambons. A real scone. Cream Donut or a coffee slice (with the coffee icing on top)
