A local store has a 4' section devoted to food from America. Yummy stuff but it is clearly at a premium. The current US Dollar to Pound conversion is $1.51....which means if we see something for 1 pound here in the UK, it equates to $1.51 US. So....if you like pop tarts...they are 3.50 UK pounds....that equates to $5.30 US.
Like M&Ms...they are 1.50 UK pounds or $2.27 per bag
Want a box with 2 twinkies in it? That will set you back 2 UK pounds or $3.03 for 2 twinkies.

Ouch! You had better enjoy those twinkles for that price. Interesting as last night I went to marshals and they had British tea biscuits that were crazy expensive. I bought some but it hurt :).

That is so unreal. Things costs a lot here but nothing compared to there. I bought a huge bag of the pretzels filled with peanut butter here before Christmas and I paid very little. There you would have to really ration them out to make them worth their while.
