Beef products.

[Gandtee]

During the UK Mad Cow disease, scare, Thailand banned all beef products from the UK. Is that ban still in operation? It seems that the supermarkets do not now carry Knorr beef stock cubes. Oxo cubes. Bisto gravy powder and the like. Or is my wife shopping in the wrong places around Pattaya?

Knorr beef stock cubes

Available in Foodland.

I don't know the other products so I can't comment about their availability. 

In general, I suggest look in Foodland, Tops, Villa Market.

Macro has some good Australian beef , I think it is called Harvey ,

Bistros are usually expensive...pretentious cafés, they're not good places to buy your Bisto.

Foodland has always had them, and according to my wife, they still sell it today. If we buy, we buy the big pack (24 pieces with 2 cubes each in it). If in an emergency, there are as well "Knorr" Bouillon Cubes (same Design, but Thai writing) in TOPS. It may as well be substituted by "Rosdee" (we call it the "happy pig" variety, they have as well "happy chicken". And a combination of both comes (well at least a bit) close the the stock that is mandatory for chinese cooking. I make my hot and sour soup with it as a base and it is absolutely stunning.

Export of British beef ban was lifted in 2005 ,but export of beef to Thailand was allowed, but the regs were revised only in 2018.
