Anyone who has ever tried tea in America will confirm that it’s so weak that it can barely even be considered tea. Lipton’s? Give us Barry’s or Lyon’s any day of the week.
Snackboxes, curry chips, coleslaw chips, garlic cheese chips – the selection of messy chipper food is nowhere near as vast as it is in Ireland. (Well, Supermacs.)
7. Chocolate

2. Rashers
Irish rashers are a thing of beauty, but other countries have failed to replicate the goodness of a juicy rasher.
US bacon is not the same thing.
3. A good pint of Guinness
It just doesn’t taste the same anywhere else.
4. Sliced pan
There have been multiple reports of sweet-tasting/generally crap sliced pans from all over the world.
Whoops!

Don’t even try getting soda bread. It’s not worth it.
5. Milk
Pesky foreign cows! Always ruining the tea, which was already crap to begin with.

Snackboxes, curry chips, coleslaw chips, garlic cheese chips – the selection of messy chipper food is nowhere near as vast as it is in Ireland. (Well, Supermacs.)
7. Chocolate
