Ich besuche meine Familie nächste Woche, und ich will kleine Geschenke mitbringen.

I know American chocolate is inferior, but I assume it’s still a novelty. Some kind of candies probably, too. What else? Many years ago they loved to get boxed breakfast cereal and paper napkins, which seems quaint now.

It’s been years since I’ve seen them, and I’m sure everyone there can buy whatever they want on the Internet, but it will still be fun to bring something.

Any suggestions for an Ausländer?

I love peanut butter M&M’s. They don’t sell those here.

Ranch dressing is a big one, since you can’t get hidden valley anywhere!

I always request that one from from family in the US (along with good bbq sauce and hot sauce)

You don’t want beef jerky - Biltong is superior in all aspects.

Some Pepperidge farms cookies don’t seem to have an equivalent in Germany. And I think real Spam is better than the generic Frühstücksfleisch, but that’s probably just a Geschmackssache.

I do love SPAM.

Thanks for the new word: Geschmackssache!
