What would it be?
As a side note: I should be moving to Seoul and dont mind bringing the odd thing like a Cadbury's chocolate bar or something if theres any posters in desperate need of a fix! |

i live near a few urban areas so I've been able to find a surprising amount of stuff from the west.
Personally the only thing that I miss that I cant find here in Korea is Wendy's.
I would kill for a frosty or a double stack right now. |

I've from the UK but i've been to America once, i have to say its no wonder obesity rates are high, your fast food is amazing in comparison to ours. We dont have the delight of Wendy's or, my favourite, In-n-out burger! |

Crispy fried chill beef from my local Chinese takeaway.
Or a Coronation Chicken baguette. Sorry I couldn't help being greedy. |

A good Indian Meal (Vindaloo, Chicken Tandoori, Nan bread with shrimp & curry, yellow saffron rice), washed down with a glass or 2 of Australian white wine. |

Anything with cheese.
Better Cheddars and Cheetos specifically. They have Cheetos here, but all i've been able to find are steak and red pepper flavored.
Not usually a big junk-food eater, but I need some good cheese! |

Sounds boss. I'd go an oversized steak and mushroom pie. Or three. |

you can get American style Cheetos at Namdaemun Market in the underground import food area. they usually run about 4,500 - 5,500 won a bag. you can also get different styles of cheese there if you don't want to make the trip to costco.
i wish they sold brown rice pasta or japanese style rice crackers. i really miss these foods...they used to have the rice crackers at WalMart, but when they sold the stores they stopped carrying them. never seen the brown rice pasta, though! |

An authentic breakfast in a diner served in the middle of the night and washed down with unlimited refills of crappy black coffee. |
