My husband and I are visiting one of my closest friends who just got moved from the US to Sweden about six months ago. I’ve asked her 3 times what treats her family might want from the US but she insists our visit is enough. So now I must ask other expats what they wish they had access to.
If it matters, she’s originally Russian born and raised, moved to the US 2 years ago (that’s when we met) and then got transferred to Sweden six months ago. So maybe she really craves nothing since she wasn’t here a long time, but I think a few treats would still be nice. Her daughter is 3. Also, it must be able to travel via plane of course. Please help! I don’t know what she might have access to there and don’t want to duplicate.
We had American visitors once for Thanksgiving who brought pecans. We were in Lisbon and they were available locally, but expensive and only at the specialty grocery store at least at that time. It was fun to have pecan pie, which I don’t think I’d eaten more than a few times in the US, and had never seen in Portugal.
