For those of you in Australia, I use http://www.usafoods.com.au/
a fair bit. Helps me get the ingredients that are always listed in recipes.

For interesting organic food gifts: www.diamondorganics.com (not bad for yourself, either!).
For wonderful California olive oils: www.theolivepress.com (actually, I visit this place in person a few times a year, but if my mother-in-law moves back East, I will start ordering online).
For very fresh, very good spices: www.penzeys.com

Penzy's spices are fantastic. I've been ordering from them for years. I actually lived in a town that had a Penzy's store. It was wonderful. I just checked out the Olive Press website...looks fabulous...same with dartagnan.com. Question...I love to cook, but I have never prepared foie gras before. How challenging is it. I spent a couple of weeks in Paris last month and fell in love with the foie gras there.
Also, a decent website, if you don't have an Indian market in the area, is http://www.ethnicgrocer.com. Great websites for recipes are www.epicurious.com and www.foodtv.com.

I also use cooking.com for kitchen gadgets and gear.
http://www.alazing.com offers some truly impressive frozen meals. It's part of Omaha Steaks (or is it the other way around?), but my wife and I have found their food quality overall to be quite impressive for easy-to-prepare full meals.

I think Chowhound.com is pretty good - always has well-informed posters and people are great at suggesting places/giving reviews. I found it to be very helpful when I lived in NYC, not sure how the other region boards are.

www.cookswares.com is my favorite for gadgets and gear. Excellent selection, good prices. They also carry Vann's spices, which I haven't tried, but have a very good reputation.
