(We decided the penpal in Ontario probably doesn't need more maple in her life.)
...are you familiar with the idea that I tend to go overboard? Yeeeeeeah. So now I have a question, though ultimately this is all going to boil down to "the maple, grape, and root beer candies we've got sitting in our pantry" anyway: It's easy to find out what American candies you don't have in England and/or Australia. Are there any savory snacks that are lightweight and yummy that you don't have?

3. Kosher salt has big crystals, and is not iodized. I asked once why it's called kosher - turns out, it's the salt you use to kasher meat, that is, to make it kosher by getting the blood out.

Possibly strips of tortilla? I think they were meant to be put on salad. Again, I didn't find them yummy, but presumably someone does since they exist.
Bacon-related things? We have quite a variety over here but I think you may have more.
