Re: Marmite etc.
Guess most folks who have moved from the place they were brung up in miss various food-stuffs the most , my case decent pork sausages and bacon (US bacon sucks big time and Hot Dogs are NOT sausages) and that pork pie with hard boiled eggs in the middle .
Boxes of dried peas with the soaking tablet , regular split peas never seem to turn out the same .
It would also be nice if I could on occasion when I get a thirst to be able to get hold of the odd 'Irn Bru' or 'Dandelion and Burdock' , sod Pepsi and Coke
Also on the list Picalilli and proper Malt vinegar, wine vinegar is just a way of dumping lousy sour wine on folks with too much money

Re: Marmite etc.
When i used to go on holiday to the cousins in ireland i used to have to take a holdall packed in my suitcase to bring back the bread for everyone, wheaten, soda farls, fruit soda and veda because you couldnt get it over here. Now the supermarkets sell one kind but its not the same as the bakery at the bottom of the main street in Armagh. In fact you cant get veda over here at all or wheaten - what they sell here is brown soda.
Anyway my 3 would probably be - lancashire cheese, cissy greens meat pies and sarsparilla sweets from stockleys.
