Do you people have double-stuffed Oreos? They're my new favorite vice on the cookie front.
I second the Goldfish and Milano suggestions. Definitely quality.
For chips, I like Pringles and lime-flavored Tostidos. If you like fruit salsa with your chips, I loooooooooooove Newman's Own Peach Salsa. Mix in some Tobasco with it, dip in the lime Tostidos and NOW we're talking quality snacking.
In terms of crackers, I also really like Wheat Thins, though you people are all into your "biscuits," you can probably find better crackers there (I remember drinking tea and eating Bisc&'s with M&M's... LOVED those things).
In terms of chocolate candy, I think that England has us beat by far. While Reeses Peanut Butter Cups are good, I'd take Cadbury chocolates over that any day...
For gummy candy, I can't really remember what you guys had; I'm not sure that my gummy sugar tooth was satisfied over there... Definitely tell them to bring back Swedish Fish and Sour Patch Kids. And Sour Watermelons (made by the same people who do Sour Patch Kids). Fruity Mike and Ikes are good too. If I recall, Europe has Starburst candy, but with current flavor, which I found repulsive. If you want alternative flavors in Starburst you can get them here (I REALLY like chewy candies). Laffy Taffy is great for chewy sugarness too.
If you like jelly beans, Jelly Belly are gourmet jelly beans. They're faaaaaaaaaaaaaaabulous.
Soda: I really like Code Red; if you like sweet soda, you'll like it too... Also, I don't think that Dr. Pepper is in Europe... Definitely get her to bring you back Dr. Pepper.
