Are British food sections available in many French supermarkets now, with all the ex-pat British communities?

old know all
In Carrefour in Lille, there's an ethnic food section. Under Grande Bretagne they have Robertson's marmalade, Marmite and Kellogg's Corn Flakes (even though marmalade and marmite are French words and Kloggo is American)

Yes. most big supermarkets have a section, but to be honest it's not really worth it. The stuff is all massively expensive, because it's specially imported in such small quantities. Also, many things that were not common (or even non-existant) in France a few years ago are becoming widely available in the 'normal' aisles of supermarkets. Quaker produce porridge oats for the French market now, Heinz worcestershire sauce has been available for a few years, and my local Champion hypermarket (part of the Carrefour chain) is producing an own brand tin of baked beans that actually taste like baked beans should! The only two things that I still get from the UK are Bisto powder (not granules), and golden syrup, but apart from that there's almost nothing I miss, or that I can't replace with a French equivalent.

There's one in my nearest supermarket - Super U (Uzerche), but not in one 5 minutes further up the road (Lubersac). Carrefour in Limoges has an English section.

Super U doesn't stock that much English food. They have: custard powder, baked beans, salad cream, gravy granules, jacobs crackers, marmite, digestives, brown sauce, branston pickle, piccalilli, Heinz tomato soup, Paxo sage + onion stuffing.

All very overpriced.

Many French supermarkets, in common with UK supermarkets, have a section in them containing English food, chinese food, indian food etc. Just the same as the UK
