Canadian living in Ireland

I have a very good friend who is currently living in Ireland for a few years. She is originally from Canada (Winnipeg, Manitoba to be more precise). I would desperately love to send her a care package of things she might be missing. I have visited Ireland but it's so long ago I've kind of forgotten what things we have here (in Canada) that are not for sale (or at least very hard to come by) in Ireland (specifically, Dublin). Can anyone help me? I know I could just ask her but if I could come up with some stuff "on my own" I'd prefer that. Any transplanted Canadians out there?

Cross-posted in Long Haul.

The one Canadian in Ireland I know is missing snow in the winter, endless forests and the howling of wolves at night.
Not much help, I know.
But it's a bit vague anyway. If she misses foodstuff send her some speciality whatever that might be (elk steak?). If she is into outdoor sports send her some decent ice skates (there is an ice rink in winter in Dublin). If she feels lonely send her a teddy bear or a handsome lumberjack.

But you really get everything in Ireland by now, unless there is something you only get locally in Manitoba.
To be on the safe side though I'd really would ask her. I remember that I once got a care package from home with stuff my friends thought I miss but actually even never liked back home.

Good luck!

gum. there,s nothing like north american chewing gum.

I'm not Canadian but as Americans being here, my wife and I found a shop in London that sold all sorts of candies and snacks that aren't sold here in Dublin. The price markup was probably at least quadruple what we'd pay at home but we still cleared out the shop. Try to remember what candies and sweets your friend likes and that should make them happy. Chewing gum, Junior Mints, Blow Pops, Jolly Ranchers, Cheetos (you can get some here but not the same flavors), Willy Wonka candies, Sprees...........not sure if you'd have similar stuff in Canada but those are just some things.

decent peanut butter!

Thanks so much for all the great ideas!

There's also a little cafe on, I think, Grafton St., right across from one of the main entrances to Trinity that serves Tim Horton's coffee (or it did last year anyway).

oh where to begin?

- Kraft Dinner
- Kraft peanut butter
- Miracle Whip (tho some Dunnes stores carry it)
- Nestea powdered ice tea
- Aunt Jemima pancake syrup
- Turtles chocolates
- Bic's garlic dill pickles
- clamato juice
- reeses peices/peanut butter cups
- twinkies

Crap,...now I'm hungry!
