Proper French saucisson. Went on a skiing holiday a couple of years ago and took a spare suitcase. Spent close to 300 Euros on saucisson and cheese and filled my suitcase to bring it home.

Available in Morrisons - two types, the one with added Roquefort is unbelievably smelly when opening the pack but both absolutely gorgeous to eat.

Every time I come back from Japan, I miss a number of restaurants that I can only visit there, some I've been frequenting for over 20 years. We can get a lot of the food bits we like over here now (albeit at sillly prices sometimes), so we only tend to bring back the more expensive items here (cheaper there). But amongst all the food bits we do bring back with us, the one I like best, usually have it for breakfast every day when I'm there, and bring back as many as I can find, is the steamed egg cake. It's so good and haven't found anything to compare here.

From Australia - I really enjoyed the variety of Bundaberg soft drinks and their varieties of Kombucha.

And from Scotland I do rather miss the 'haggis with just about anything' in restaurants - as I do love a nice bit of haggis. And a good Stornoway Black Pudding is not always that easy to find.

I did rather enjoy Fish Amok in Cambodia - never had before and splendid...

Depends what country I'm in:

Italy, I'm definitely craving the breakfast had in bologna, crispy bacon, cold cuts, eggs and Salted Croissants with a proper Espresso

Spain a really good d proper Alioli with fresh bread.

Ireland Guinness, it just beats every pint of it I've ever had here.

Netherlands more spefically Amsterdam, there's a place called Sarah's Pancake House on the main road in to the centre of Dam the maple, bacon & rocksalt pancakes are something I could eat every day but
 
Salt liquorice, lingonberry jam, snus (Swedish tobacco that you put under your lip) and Swedish kaviar that you put on toast. Luckily, IKEA can sort all of that besides the tobacco.
