American Ethnic Foods Section

If you were an American living on the other side of the pond, these are the foods you might start to miss. Redditor AxleTheDog posted a picture of the American section in the ethnic food aisle at the Tesco store in Rochdale, Greater Manchester, England. I see an overabundance of peanut butter and chocolate. There are two flavors of Goober, marshmallow creme, Pop Tarts, mac and cheese, and of course plenty opt candy. Canned pumpkin? A commenter explained that they do have pumpkin pie in Europe, but to make it you have to cook a pumpkin yourself, so the canned version makes things easier -the American way.

The British food section at my favorite grocery has a much larger variety in just one four foot section (and i think there are at least two sections. The picture above looks like it might be 6 feet total.).

A friend of mine who's been living in France for the past couple years says she has a heckuva time finding peanut butter there. Apparently, the French think it smells awful and tastes worse. Her mom's good about sending her care packages from Louisiana, though.
