Jacket potatoes
Ohhh, jacket potatoes with chedder and baked beans - mmmmmmmmm! It is one of those incredibly common UK foodstuffs that is just impossible to get here unless you make it yourself.

Pizza - I find UK takeaway pizza too greasy (especialy things like Pizza hut), I quite like the non-greasy takeaway pizzas I can get in Canada (water based dough rather than oil), but nothing beats thin, wonderful pizza in Italy!
