so hold on.....how does that make it better? ;)

Indeed. A single Butterfinger provides you with a meal for the entire day.

Yup. They're really good if you like salty stuff. Same goes for Reese's. You can also bring Lindt Truffles or Ferrera Roche hazlenut chocolates. Maybe some Almond Rocca?

give it up for Nutrageous! mmmmm.....

and if you're in the mood for something lighter, 3 Musketeers.

and if you dig coconut, Almond Joy is fantastic.

I've never heard them described that way, I guess it depends on how they're used...

Made in Europe, shipped to the US, bought in WalMart for half the price that they're sold for in Poland, and reimported...I like it :)

Sugar and cocoa are at near all time highs. I like hedge my addictions by with commodities futures :)

I am going to stock up, hoping there will be a chocolate rush in the near future ;)

I made a killing in cotton last year. Guessing that will ripple into the discount clothing industry anytime now. Might be good to stock up on undies and socks.

And don't forget your brain when you check out at the immigration office at the airport ;-))

How about a Stratocaster..

I was going to suggest designer handbags for female friends or relatives. I think Piotr's idea is much better. I wouldn't mind owning at least a dozen Fender guitars myself. Btw, the fabulous Fender Guitar Museum in Corona, California is located merely 15 miles from my home ;)

pepperoni would be a great one to take back. pepperoni in poland simply isn't pepperoni, it's salami making a valiant effort to taste like pepperoni.

i second cheddar cheese.

This!!!!! I came back with five bags of the sliced pepperoni for this purpose this past November. I also picked up a handful of the packages of Propel powder for mixing. Love these for during my runs.

Mac & Cheese is great with some ham cubes (or pepperoni) and some tomatoes thrown in.

I grabbed jelly beans and MilkyWays while I was there, oh and some handfuls of sauce packets from Taco Bell. Since I can't eat that crap while i'm here I at least have the sauce to go with my tacos!

I usually bring back clothes (cheaper in the US but the price gap is closing), vitamins (huge price difference, and ziploc bags (don't laugh, everybody is right, you cannot find them here). One last thing, I brought food coloring. It comes in an inexpensive little pack in the US and in Poland it comes in a quantity I would never use in a lifetime of birthday cake decorating.

I don't think it makes sense to bring food items except maybe something like candy or gum or something. I have a recipe for pancakes that is just as good or even better than any mix ;)
