    Not sure about that one - you'd need to keep the meat refrigerated, I would think. Also, local import/export laws may inhibit the products from entering.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Not sure how different this is but my brother and sister visited me recently and I requested rashers, sausages and some pudding. No issues at all with it.

    No international food stores over there in the Fallopians, no?

    Do you actually think many Filipino butchers know or even care about how to make and Irish style sausage . Its very hard to get irish style sausages in Europe, never mind pudding and the likes.

    Try britishcornershop.co.uk
    I know they also do non european countries. Not sure if the refrigeration option is also there for countries outside of europe.

    Good luck. I live abroad too and know that craving for the Irish breakfast!

    Having visited the Philippines I must say that the food there is absolutely appalling and just lacks any flavor or substance so I can sympathize with the OP's brother. Everything is either fried or loaded with Sugar and being obese is a symbolism of wealth so they lap up that garbage in the sprawling SM malls in every city. Yuck!
