Coffee Crisp afficianados, never fear: http://www.coffeecrisp.org/coffeecrisp/sightings.asp is here. You can find locations by state. The site started a petition in 2000 to bring Coffee Crisp to the U.S., and was successful. Other countries have other flavor variations: caramel, triple mocha, french vanilla, orange, maple, etc. -- even yogurt and ice cream. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coffee_Crisp

From their "News" page: "2006
Nestle Launches www.Nestle-CoffeeCrisp.com:
Along with their US launch, the folks at Nestle created Nestle-CoffeeCrisp.com. The site lists several chains carrying Coffee Crisp as well as a request form for the public to petition their local store into stocking Coffee Crisp.

Nestle Sells Coffee Crisp Nationally:
During the early summer of 2006 the petition received tips that Nestle might finally be marketing Coffee Crisp nationwide. The rumor was confirmed when we were contacted by the firm responsble for marketing Coffee Crisp in the U.S. At long last, what the petition was created to do and made noise for six long years [since 2000] had finlly been achieved. To boot, as the only Coffee Crisp "fan" site on the web, Nestle was generous enough to ship the petition eight cases of Coffee Crisp bars, four of which we decided would be given away in a contest. "

Now I go by British shops, and other ethnic stores influenced by that culture and find Chicken-flavo(u)red chips and other chocolates mentioned in this thread.
If I could only find Shreddies without going to www.canadianfavourites.com or http://www.canadaonly.ca/ or http://www.snowbirdhelper.com/canadian_foods.htm (the new home for www.alwayscanadian.com) or www.britishdelights.com . Wikipedia says they are "sold in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Canada and New Zealand". That new rule about charging for an extra suitcase will -kill- me when trying to take 4+ boxes of the stuff back in my luggage at Christmas....
Nanaimo Bars I can make from scratch...
