Well, there are branches of Spar here and all the others sell British food in varying quantities, although mainly down south where there is more call for it!

For me and many others, one of the joys of foreign countries is the opportunity to try out all sorts of different foods, methods of cooking/preparation and cultures. I do understand that there are many who want Tenerife for it's sunny climate rather than it's food or wine.

What sort of things do you need? Due to the high demand of things like Baked Beans etc, even some of the Spanish supermarkets now stock up!

Get away Jenny!

You will be telling me next that you can find traditional British foods on Tenerife like Indian and Chinese takeaways as well as Kentucky Fried Chicken and MacDondalds (When I was at school he only had a farm. Look how well he has done.) Laughing

It only qualifies as being British if it originates in Denmark.

Thanks Seagull, I always enjoy a good joke. In fact, there were almost tears rolling down my cheeks...
