american food stores in paris

Hi,



I am an american living in france and am making a trip to Paris and was wondering if there were any stores that had some american food products. Ranch dressing, yellow mustard, canned pumkpkin etc....



We have lived in france for the last 8 years but were missing some things that we can%26#39;t find in our little city so any help would be greatly appreciated!!!



Thanks,



Nikki





Also, where are the best holiday displays in paris? chalets, hot wine etc.....

It mentions stores like %26quot;Real Mccoy%26quot; and %26quot;Thanksgiving%26quot;, and that many larger supermarkets have some American brands as well.





The Real McCoy 194, rue de Grenelle 75007





Thanksgiving 20, rue Saint Paul 75004

The ones travelnutty mentions are the most popular in Paris. They have all thes tuff you mention.





For holiday displays, check the department store windows which are always fabulous. And don%26#39;t miss the roasted chestnuts on the streets, it%26#39;s a major treat. Personally, I love to go to Bon Marches %26quot;Grande Epicerie%26quot; at Christmastime to look at all the fabulous delicacies. It%26#39;s amazing...





Tu habites Pau? J%26#39;adore....c%26#39;est un peu loin, mais c%26#39;est genial.

Thanks for all the great input!! I will definitely check those places out. I go to paris a lot but never for american stuff but got a few special recipe requests from my husband so I figured I would try to find some stuff.





Les68,



Unfortunately, I don%26#39;t live in Pau anymore, I need to update my bio. We are in St Quentin this year, not much to do but at least we are near Paris, or somewhat near Paris, about an hour and a half.







Thanks again!!!

I will be in Paris the week of the 23rd and I would bring you what you. PM me and tell me what your are interested in having. My son is in Merignac and is coming to meet us. I am already bringing him stuff and would not mind putting in a little extra.

EVETIL,



You are so kind!! Thank you but I actually just got a %26#39;care package%26#39; -finally- from our family and it had everything we needed in it. Thanks again and enjoy your trip.





Nikki
