    Question Irn Bru and Jaffa Cakes

    One of the greatest things about Scotland is Irn Bru... I had never had it before I went there, and became addicted during my 2-week stay. My daily snack was an Irn Bru and my other favorite discovery- jaffa cakes! I swear, heaven must be stocked with this stuff. It was an extra special day when I could find the big spongecake style Jaffe Cakes (4 to a package). Oh lord, my mouth is watering just thinking about it...

    Has anyone used one of the grocery importers to buy Irn Bru? I can get Jaffa Cakes at my local World Market, but it seems that Irn Bru is going to have to be ordered from someplace special. I'm sure the shipping will be brutal, but I would really like to have a couple of dozen on hand to share with friends.

    Just keep an eye out for any world food stores or even just the world foods isle in your supermarket.
    It will cost more, but it's so worth it!

    As for Jaffa cakes, I love em!
    My wife recently baked a giant jaffa cake. I really want to try that out.

    One part of a Christmas present was a yard of Jaffa cakes - only had a couple of inches of them so far!
