Never fails a smile :-)

Never fails to deliver in perfect timing and the Lays Large Classic always tastes amazing every-time I order them. My only critique is waiting for more to come in stock again because I always look forward to ordering more. will recommend to Friends.

First time buyer…

First time buying from A Taste of the States. Was delighted to be able to get some Halloween peeps in my order. Didn’t manage to get milk duds cause they were out of stock so hopefully next order I’ll get. Order was processed quickly and courier left package in my safe place as I was out on the delivery day. Even got a few free tasters which was a lovely surprise when I opened the box. Will definitely buy from them again.

Just fantastic

I am over the moon to buy products on this website. So many things to try out or eat again when you visit the States in the past.
I just got my parcel and I have to say a thank you for the lovely threats of candy there added in the box. Very kind.
I definitely will order again ☺️
It takes a bit time but still arrived
Customer service was friendly when ask about my delivery.

Satisfying a craving from home

Fairly expensive but then the travel distance and import duty can't be avoided, but pleased to be able to satisfy a craving from back home. I usually have to wait until someone is travelling from the USA and have luggage space, but now I know how to get my food desires satisfied. I note the added sweets thrown in the packaging, a nice touch.

A Taste of Home Sweet Home!

As an ex-pat living in the UK, I love being able to order snacks and treats from A Taste of the States! Unfortunately, it is quite expensive and items are often out of stock, but they do offer discount codes and restock often. Recommended to anyone wanting a taste of the states here in the UK!

Horrible

Horrible! Not even the same taste. The cola cubes taste nothing like the ones we used to buy from the shop. Most of it tastes stale.

The sweets are great

The sweets are great, authentic, tasty, but when they were delivered the box was really messed up and the sweets had gotten everywhere. So that wasn’t great.
