Toasted tea cake (buy do at home)
Poached eggs on toast (T bar)

. . .

Import taxes and customs fees in Thailand affect almost everything coming from the West.

Great to see tam back posting,especially on a strong important subject as british /english breakfast cereal,thought he might be more interested in his own staple diet,the porridge gobbling homo,lol

That's the gay American derivative.

Real Jockinese were raised on this.

That's funny I thought it was more like a few jellies washed down with a bottle of buck fast.

YES believe me i know all about customs import taxes and the multitude of tariffs with in the whole system .. my point was if Kelloggs can produce corn flakes here why not special K as it is an off shoot variation of the traditional corn flake .There is a huge difference in price between the two and import tax is the main issue...

I also like wheatabix, shredded wheat (Arther Scargills as they were known in Scunny) , again quite a few variations depending on where its produced.

I've been hunting for Hidden Valley Ranch salad dressing ever since I got here. Found some online here from BKK. It was great and filling the void, but then the company stopped stocking it. I've hunted around, but haven't located any. Maybe I'm hitting places at the wrong time.

Any help appreciated.

It is the pick of the local bunch.
I'll be down in Bangkok & Pattaya this weekend and can see if it's available. If so, how many do you need?

Appreciate the offer, tamada. If you see it, just point me to it.

I'm going down to Burapa to retrieve the #1 daughter from her apartment at the university in the next few days, and I'll load up on the way home.
