I’m homesick and was wondering whether there are any stores in Sheffield that sell American/Canadian food that you cant normally buy in England. (by that I mean stuff like gum, chocolate, cereal, drinks, chips etc)

What are you after? The Sheffield University union shop has Hershey's and Reese's (mmmmmm peanut butter cups!) chocolate :)

Mmm I know! :) I was so happy when I saw them there a few months ago! I just wish they had reese’s puffs as well :( Or hersheys cookies n cream bars
Im not really after anything in particular. It would just be nice to pick up a few things I cant get here. Like maybe sun chips.... Or lays dill pickle or ketchup... and loads of other things I cant think of at the moment

They do - well last time I went in they had cookies and cream bars - they are on the opposite side to the rest of the Hershey's Reese's stuff though :)

Have you seen www.cybercandy.co.uk ?

And Woolworths have a small selection of Reese's products.

Just shop at the worst supermarket you can find and buy the least fresh ingredients, then it will feel just like an American supermarket. You could always ask the staff if they will grin inanely at you as they serve you if that would help. If you have access to a lab you could also think about injecting any meat you buy with large quanities of hormones and antibiotics.
