    Well you may call this nitpicking but I don't, KitKats were created by Rowntree's of York, United Kingdom, NOT in the US.

      Correct Kit Kats are English not American.

      I was distressed when I discovered that Cadbury is also a UK brand, not an Aussie one. But my biased opinion is still that our version of Cadbury milk chocolate tastes better! 😉 Yes I’ve tasted both, and they are slightly different.

    Blacktown Markets on a Sunday at the Drive inn you can get all the American foods and sweets also at Penrith Markets at the trotting track across from Nepean Village on Wednesday and the night markets on Sunday. Also in this big Lollie store on High Street Penrith they also have the American cereals . The Lindt Chocolate factory is at Marsden Park about 4 miles west of you up Richmond Road you can go in there and pick your own. Rowntrees was the original maker of Kit Kat as was Hoadleys for the Polly Waffle and there was also McRoberstsons all taken over by Nestle .

    80% of these I have never seen in in my 68 years. Many of them I have never even heard of.
    By the way, Birds Eye was started in the US in the 1920's by a named Clarence Birdseye, but the original company eventually became a brand name owned by bigger companies. Birds Eye is actually a separate company in both the UK and Australia, so the headquarters of Birds Eye in Wikipedia shows Chicago, US, Feltham, UK, and Mentone, Australia, and all three companies operate independently. It is thus both an American and an Australian company, as well as a British company. I find it fascinating how food brands are often quite different to what you think they are.
    And it means that while the brand is found in both countries, it is definitely not the same company.

    Also a lot of what you listed are European brands or of European manufacture so no surprise they are available in both countries.
    One thing I love from the US are Jolly Ranchers, the hard ones, the flavors are amazing. I can source then here but they are expensive so I have them sent from one of my friends in America when we do exchange packages :)

      I don't know how old you are but in my experience the pronunciation is a generational thing. There was a huge marketing campaign in the 90s (maybe later) pushing the new pronunciation. So older people tend to say "Nessels" and younger people tend to say "Nes-lay"
