Default Re: Confused about UK/US foods!

Hi Barbie!

Atkineer from the UK here. Philadelphia cream cheese is induction legal, but make sure you don't use Philly light. I can't see any problem with Babybel either, its a full fat cheese and therefore legal. I agree that it is good to be prepared with snacks, I walked around for a few days with some in a small cooler bag when i first started - didn't always need them, but at least I was ready for an attack of the munchies!

My favourite snack, if required, are those cheese strings or a couple of sticks of pepperami. They are always available in even the smallest of Tescos where I live.

Now, having mentioned attacks of the munchies, I have just realised that I missed lunch - blimey! better go and eat.

Hope your first few days go well, and keep us posted.

Keetje
