    I have always loved trying new things, I enjoy a lot of different cultural foods. Some of my favorite being Korean dishes. Thid forum will give you the chance to trade with people in other countries, the following these will be acceptable in the box;

    1.Snack foods; chips, crisps, microwavable meals from your country.
    2. Candies!
    3.Key chain for the memory.
    4. A letter, if the food is in another language maybe translate it for them if you can? So they know whats inside it or what it's called.
    5.Your favorite candies, and/or foods.
    6. Teas, or drinks.

    Rules, this should have been expected;

    1.No stalking; serious. Addresses are going to be given and we don't want people stalking one another with specific permissions.

    2. State all known allergies in your messages to each other, and make sure to not buy anything that your trading buddy is allergic too.

    3.No home baked goods, I'm seriously on the wall about this. I don't know how it will go through customs.

    4. When you receive your package, share pictures with us! Tell us about your experience and how you liked each candy and if you'd want it again.

    5. If you're under 18, I'd suggest talking to your parents before giving out your address. We all know it's really not safe and it can get you killed if you give it out to the wrong person.

    6. Make sure you ask what the weather is like, if it's warm it might not be a good idea to send anything with chocolate - you can try but you have to think, it will take a week to two weeks to arrive at it's destination.

    7. Make sure you send and equal amount of candy, or if the person is fine with less than you're receiving make sure it's stated so you don't just assume.

    Typically, I'd say you should send about 10 different types of food things/candy things, but it all depends on what the other country has.

    So ask questions, and find the best thing that your trading buddy might like.

    Things you should list when posting in this forum;

    1.Where you're from. (City, State, Country)
    2. What kind of candies you're interested in.
    3. If you've had a certain candy before and would love to have it again.
    4. Allergies to certain foods.
    5. Kinds of candy/food you can offer

    This is an amazing idea! Earlier this year I actually exchanged candies through mail with a friend from the UK and I got to try lots of tasty stuff that I'd never had before. Super fun! :)

    1. I'm from TN. Close to Nashville.
    2. I pretty much love all candy with the exception of gummies. Yuck. Mostly chocolate or tiramisu candies. Om nom.
    3. Anything not from the US! Hah. I'd like to try new candies.
    4. I have no food allergies.
    5. I can offer pretty much any US candy you would be interested in trying. We have Cadbury here as well as Hershey's brand which is pretty popular and Russel Stovers... Oh! And Jones soda's! I've heard they don't sell them in the UK and they are fabulous!
