    For those Irish living abroad, what food do you really miss from Ireland? For me it is always Tayto cheese and onion

    Agreed. Here's my most missed favourites in no particular order:

    Tayto Cheese & Onion
    Cadbury's chocolate
    Lyon's Tea
    Rashers (back or thick-cut streaky)
    Ginger Nut biscuits

    That said - I'm living in Switzerland & they have such a wonderful variety of foods & cuisines here that I really am spoilt. My ample waistline reflects this. :o

    You're in Switzerland and you miss Cadbury's "chocolate"? There's no hope for you, really :D

    The local choccy is cracking, but can be very rich. * Looks for 'bloated' smiley *

    Timistry, I know the Guinness in Ireland is the best, but I see you live in Melbourne and PJ O'Briens on the South bank ain't bad.

    +1 on the Club Orange
