Survey Reveals Foods People Who Leave Ireland Miss The Most

As a nation, we take our grub very seriously.  While of course we miss our mammies when we go away, there are moments when we'd absolutely sell our mammy for a pack of Tayto, without thinking twice. According to a poll conducted by Checkout Magazine, Irish emigrants miss Tayto more than any other food, followed closely by Cadburys chocolate and Kerrygold butter. Of course, a cuppa features pretty high on the list, with Barry's and Lyons coming out on top as the brands people pine for the most. Editor of the magazine, Stephen Wynn Jones, reflected on the results of the poll which had 546 respondents. He said: "Stout is always one that comes up at the top of that. "Obviously, the old adage that Guinness doesn't travel well still lingers with some people. "Other product categories that are really favoured include meat products. Two thirds of respondents said that the bacon and rashers they can get in Ireland are better than anywhere else in the world." "58% said that the milk we have here is better than what's available elsewhere, compared to just 8% that says that milk from overseas is of higher quality. "So I think we've a lot to be proud of in terms of our food quality, and that's really brought to life in this report." Ah, the taste of home.
