Foreign foods

What's a foreign food to your country that you love, but you can't get unless you can find them at a specialty import store? I love trying new foods in restaurants, but it's still using local ingredients for the Canadian pallet.
For me;

South Africa; Biltong and Iron Brew
USA; Chicken in a Biskit and Grits
UK; Percy Pigs
Austria; Zotter's

Number 1 on my list used to be Magnum Ice Cream, and while flavours differ and some countries are lucky enough to have pints (which were soooo good) at least I can now get them.

And there used to be a beer from Norway I loved, in little green bottles called Ringness Ale ... such a fresh clean taste ... it was great ... but, I have not seen it in decades.

Dutch Licorice.

Yummy! What kind do you like?

The saltiest.

Okay, cool. I'm more a fan of honey flavoured licorice or the kitten shaped ones with anise. Although once in a while I do have a craving for strong salmiak licorice.
