Where You Will Find American Food Favourites in Australia (bricks & mortar and online)

Where to buy your favourite American food and groceries in Australia

Are you missing your favourite American candy bar? What to know where to get USA soda? What about your favourite American Cereal? Where can you buy USA groceries and food in Australia?

Thankfully there are some stores here in Australia that sell USA groceries and foods either in store or online or both. After the nation wide stores, I’ve divided the stores into Australian states and most of these outlets ship online as well.

If you are after American fast food places in Australia (including Starbucks) or where are those great American stores in Australia then click the links to get to that information.

Australia Wide

Coles Supermarkets

website: www.coles.com.au

Some Coles Supermarkets will have an international foods aisle or section and sometimes there is a little USA food section.
I’ve seen items like:

Dr Pepper
Cherry Coke
Arizona iced tea
Marshmallow Fluff
Reese’s
Hershey’s
Ben and Jerry’s
Scrub Daddy and Mommy
Frosted Chocotastic Pop-Tarts
Downy Unstopables
Bar Keepers Friend
Chocolatastic Pop-Tarts

Woolworths Supermarkets

Website: www.woolworths.com.au

Most Woolworths have Reese’s products. The Reese’s bars are made in USA but the Reese’s ice cream products are made in Australia by Bulla ice cream. Not that it matters as the ice cream tub is delicious (and gluten free). They also have:

Pop-Tarts
Hershey’s Cookies ‘n’ Cookies
Hershey’s Chocolatey Bites (made by Kellogg’s Australia)
Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, Miniatures and Baking Chips
Reese’s Peanut Butter Chips
Stubb’s BBQ Sauce
Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ Sauce

Costco

Website: www.costco.com.au

Since Costco is an American store, there are quite a few American products available there but there is also a lot of Australian ones.

The products I have seen or bought include:

Swiffer
Goldfish Crackers
Ruffles chips
Reeses
Hershey’s
Ziploc
Sweet Baby Rays
Skippy
Welches
Glad Press’n’Seal
Swiss Miss
The Cheesecake Factory frozen cheesecakes
In November they have fresh pumpkin pies.

I have a Store Spotlight article on my latest visit to Costco Australia which has a list and some photos of American goodies I found.

Aldi Supermarkets

Website: www.aldi.com.au

Aldi usually have a July 4th sale which features some classic USA foods including:

Sweet Baby Rays
Reeses
Hersheys
Baby Ruth
Pay Day
Lays

Here are a few photos of what I found at Aldi’s 4th July sale in 2020.

IGA / Foodworks / Independent Supermarkets

Many IGA’s or similar across Australia have an International Section for USA items. Usually there isn’t a large range but you can often get, Pop-tarts, Dr Pepper, Reese’s, Hershey’s and BBQ sauces.

It would be worth checking your local independent supermarket to see what they have. If they don’t have want you want, it might be worth chatting to the manager and seeing if they can get what you want in – especially if you are going to be a regular buyer of that item.

Victoria and Tasmania

USA Foods

Website: www.usafoods.com.au
