Finally my new batch of pepperoni arrived. The stuff they call pepperoni is just a salami. Worst part of ordering from US is cost and time to ship! This time I ordered 6 one pound stick of Bridgeford. Now waiting on some Cajun spices, and I'm set for a bit. I will probably order some more Famous Daves, Devil'd spit BBQ soon, but I have to buy 2 cases at a time or they won't ship outside US! I just love this BBQ sauce and it really is hot from the start and great tasteing!

Sir, please recommend a website to purchase the pepperoni and famous Dave's, etc. Thanks!

from my iPad in Cha-Am

Pepperoni I get from Amazon.com, you get it3 sticks for about $18 US. They charge a fortune to send to Thailand, so we have a woman that ships from California by boat, A lot cheaper but takes a long time!

Famos Daves has a website, and buy direct, but must buy at least a case to get them to ship. I buy bulk to save on shipping cost andmost things will do good on the shelf for at least a year! The Devils spit is shipped US postal but not a long wait! I will be ordering myself after 1st of month.

Pepperoni cost me an average of 380THBT peer stick but worth every bit. Since I am making an order after 1st of month, if you have a giant craving, I am willing to part with 2 sticks for 400 Thbt shipped, as I can still get more with next order, sell by date on these sticks are 2015.Let me know if you want a couple, if you prefer to order, the Brand is Bridgeford and is the same brand I bought back in the US, And Amazon, ships faster, but cost is nuts!

Hi Backwoods,

Interesting post. I want to bring in some Malaysian and Indian Curry Pastes from Malaysia and maybe have a shot at getting some

Real Pepperoni from an Italian firm in Australia.

My question is.... how do you get on with Thai Customs, for Clearance and Import Duty etc.,

Many thanks in advance!

TGM sells proper pepperoni

Sent from my iPhone

TGM pepperoni tastes like American salami, nothing like good ol pepperoni. This the same stuff you are getting on the pizzas here. I tried the TGM when I first got here and just cried, I was so dissapointed.

Why don't the Thais think of extra ways to make money? Hundreds of needs here that are never met...

Someone could make a killing with a lot of items just not available once you move here. Canned goods, spices, canned drinks, even candy. I buy a lot of stuff from the Villa Market, but things are very limited, and cost as much as buying and having shipped. They also have a problem, they get a stock in of things, that sell super fast, then you can't even get them special order from them.

Yep. Canned string green beans. Impossible to find. Yet, it sits on every American's dinner plate. Only see the Thai green beans here.

The farang food available in Thailand is agony. The meat they pass off as pepperoni is not even a decent sausage. I order chicken breasts for delivery and the chicken pieces are not even breasts. I got some pepperoni from Casa Fellini in the RomPho Market complex and it was fantastic. I mentioned it to her and she admitted her friends bring(smuggle) it from Italy for her.

I have been using WOW for delivery and the food is.......disappointing.

What can a farang do?

Bite the bullit and order form US and pay the price. I have US pepperoni here for now and order every couple months, save you some money but shipping by boat and a takes a month or to! If you want some US pepperoni now, I can spare a couple sticks,@ 400 thbt, and that will include shipping thai post to your door!

I would argue that Bridgford is not pepperoni either. A real good pepperoni doesn't have much give when you squeeze the stick. Now if you want good pepporoni may I suggest:

https://www.labriolaitalianmarkets.com/proddetail.asp?prod=187

That pepperoni is the Margharitas brand and is indeed a great peppeoni, but it is not vacuum sealed for legal shipment and cost ia little higher, but also smaller sticks! Most stores won't ship to Thailand, but I think it can be bought at Amazon.com also. I have eat'n a lot of the Margharitas brand as well as the Armour brand. A lot has to do with how much fat is added and how long hung for cure. Bridefored will not mold and can last in unsealed package for well over a year, and price is right for the 1 pound sticks. Last time I tried to get some here, with no heavy vacuum seal, it sweat through package and was seized. Good luck and if you find a connection as well, I will buy from you for a premium price, as I learned the hard way sometimes you get your stuff and a lot of times you don't, like the 5 lb bag of bulk candy I ordered and received only 3 lbs and had several inspection tags!!

Just checked Amazon on the Margherita brand that is Vacuum sealed, 8 oz sticks at an average of $15 per pound USD. They also have the unsealed sticks and bundles at a better price, but customs requirement fo vacuum sealed to bring in dry meat is not only an obsticle, but a big jump in cost. Hope this helps, check out Amazon.com.
