We always take PG tips for the DW & DD and Nescafé Alta Rica coffee for me . Can't stand their instant coffee Floggers ect 😝 ...Also taking toilet rolls this time and a dozen dishwasher tablets due to the cost of them there.

Villa owners will say don't take toilet rolls. USA soil pipes are smaller than the UK and our toilet rolls will probably block the drainage systems.

I take tea bags and a box of sugar cubes. We stay in hotels so don’t do a food shop and it means we don’t need to go out of our way to find tea bags.

I always forget to pick up sugar sachets when I see them so a box of cubes works well and is only Ł1. Easy to pack too compared to a bag of sugar.

We don’t take anything as even though we drink tea here we just don’t miss it over there and find even with our tea bags it’s still different because of the water and the milk.

I once took 12 Xmas puddings to Florida for my daughter & her friends/colleagues ( for Xmas of course). She was working there on a university program (not Disney).
I also took boxes of Xmas crackers.
Didn’t know they were banned either.

For years, we took packs of bacon too…..

So lucky we never got stopped…..

Yes, please don’t take toilet rolls - it can result in some very expensive work!

We always take instant coffee with us - usually get some sugar sachets on the plane to put us on until we get to the villa which usually has some (if not we buy). Also take robinsons fruit juice for ds

I travel solo, don’t need a full jar of instant coffee nor box of 40 tea bags. Might not have room to bring them home 🙄😂😱. I take enough for one of each per day.
