What to buy American Business Associates
When I come to the US, I like to bring a little bit of representational England with me to give as gifts and tokens of appreciation. Christmas, I always struggle to know what to buy my fellow US colleagues, but this time, I think I have cracked it. Forget Fortnum & Mason, forget Harrods or even Marks and Spenser buy them McVitie’s Hobnobs and Jaffa Cakes, PG Tips, does the job even better. Hobnobs in particular went down a treat and my American friends got such a kick out of adding milk and sugar to their tea. So next time you have to buy your associates a little touch of England, send em a packet of Hobnobs and some PG Tips, ok not quite the same as sending them posh nosh, but do we want to encourage a false representation of what makes us British?
Very big Cheddar Cheesy grin.
By the way why is a Jaffa Cake a cake and not a Jaffa biscuit? Find out the shocking truth here
Happy 4th July Uncle Sam from Jess who cant for the life of her understand why she would know about the Jaffa Cake saga… a mind full of really odd and in some ways utterly useless information, tooo funny.
