My gigglyexcitedannoyinghandclapping visit to Selfridges!

I went to Selfridges in Birmingham a few weeks ago. The food court is amazeballs!! They sell LOADS of American food stuff, the boss was quite embarrassed as I kept taking pictures of things I had no intention of buying but I didn't care - I was in heaven!

So we got there and parked in Selfridges car park - it was a treat! The excitement started as soon as we got out of the car, I had a big grin plastered across my face. Sad, moi!?!

Anyway we got on the escalator and as we were going down to the food court, this sight awaits me .........

Boxes and boxes and boxes and boxes of Lucky Charms! I wanted to run and dive into them but I resisted.

I also saw what I was planning to buy .... FLUFF!!! The flavours are original, strawberry and raspberry. I bought an original.




OMG MAC AND CHEESE!! Going to try and cook my own at some point.




At this point the boss has wandered off to the chocolate section but I cannot contain myself any longer. I promptly thrust the jar into the air and scream 'LOOK ... IT'S BACONNAISE!!!' I get a few funny looks. I was tempted to buy it but it was £6. I quietly returned it to the shelf.



I'll defo get some Skippy next time!



GRITS! Again £6....



There she is, my girl Aunt Jemima. I don't buy any as I'm slightly concerned about the racial stereotyping.


Yeah baby, Reese's. Mmmmm.



Hershey's is an all American favourite. Unfortunately, I can't stand it.



So wrong, yet so right!!




The jellybean bull.



So there you have it - my trip to Selfridges food court. I amazed myself by not getting any Krispy Kreme either although the boss bought me a KK keyring and mug. There's less calories.

Don't worry I'm still cooking American food, in fact there are some peanut butter cookies in the kitchen as we speak. Will post the recipe soon!!
