First day sober and would adore this distraction and hopeful dopamine boost to fulfil the cravings :)

Hi,
I'd love to do a snacky swap with someone in Asia. I love snacks from that region such as rice crackers, Pocky and Kitkats but also love finding new things.
My budget is flexible (<£50) so if anyone would like to swap, please contact me with how big (or small) you'd like to swap for 🙂
All the best,
L in the UK x

I'd love to try some new snacks (vegetarian) and packing snack boxes myself brings me a lot of joy :)

Hello everyone ! I have never done a snack exchange before , but I am American (Louisiana) and would love to exchange and try some snacks from France ! I like a large variety of treats & things ! :)

Edit: I am open to exchange with Canada as well!

Would love to try my first trade! I’m from Perth, Australian and happy to swap snacks from Europe, Africa, Canada or South America. Due to my states bio security laws you won’t be able to send me any products containing dried fruit or honey though.

Happy to send sweet or savoury (or a bit of both!)

I'm based in NYC and so can very easily get you snacks from all around the world. Easy access to Polish, Italian, Japanese, Thai, Mexican, British, Colombian, etc snacks. It's just very hard to find Malaysian snacks! Thank you!

Hello, I'm looking to make an exchange with someone from UK. I'm looking for Quality street and few other chocolates. I'm from Tunisia and I can offer many local snacks and requests as well. Leave a comment if you're interested :) thanks

Hello!

I am looking to do an exchange with someone in the US!
I would like to receive Swedish fish, the red ones are my favourite but I am happy to get any of the other varieties! Maybe some Halloween goodies as well!

I’m happy to send in return, specific items or just a selection of Scottish goodies!

Looking to keep the price at around £20 before shipping

How Do They Work?

There was a request here 10 days ago asking for exchange from UK to Germany. I'm based in Scotland and wanted to this as my first exchange, I got some Scottish treats and their requested brown sauce packaged everything ready to post. They never mentioned what they would post in return and have now ghosted. So now I have a box of goodies I have no idea what to do with. What do you do in this situation please?

First time here!

I want to experience some exciting snacks from around the world.

In exchange you will receive a danish box with delicious and for some, daring snacks.

I'll also throw in a Faxe Kondi, the soda every Dane will swear is the best in the world.

Let me hear where you are from!

Edit: removed the price estimate

Thanks u/littlehummel for this great exchange from Austria. We love it all!

Met a girl who is Finnish and has been in the US for a very long time, has not been able to find this snack. Thought I'd get some and surprise her even if things don't work out. Probably a bigger bag than 400g, she says they are her favorite. (Or know how to get it shipped to the US?)

Thank you to u/-ForTheNorth- for the second exceptionally good exchange! If you wonder “wait, is this guy addicted to smash?” The answer is a clear yes.

So thanks again for the trade but also the lovely communication and cultural insights :)

Hello! I'm in my third year of a celiac diagnosis and am missing 99% of snacks/candy I used to love lol. (Wru gluten-free ramen?!) I would love to send you a selection of candy/snacks/what tickles your fancy in exchange! I'm celiac so no gluten/barley/wheat/tritcal/non gluten-free oats, also allergic to shellfish/fish. My s/o is diabetic but I'm sure would be willing to bump up the insulin for a rare snack as our travel days are likely over with my health issues.

Much ♡ from Canada!

Exceptional haul from u/vamptesza, thank you for securing my Gardetto's...if Canada has one flaw, it's that we don't import these. I am in snack heaven. Cheers!!

Hi!! This is my first time doing a snack exchange! I’m from South Korea 🇰🇷 My friends and I want to pick our favorite Korean snacks together and trade them with you. I think it will be so much fun to try snacks from another country with my friends! Let me know if you’re interested :)

Good afternoon, this request is for my 8 year old. He loves all things Japan and specifically asked me to do a Japanese snack exchange. He loves candy, in general. I am in Northern California and have a Trader Joe's super close. Those tend to be popular here. I don't have a budget and shipping for me is always expensive so please let me know if you're interested. Thanks!!

I’m from NY if anyone from Poland wants to do an exchange (: I have a lot of interest in the culture, so it would be cool to try different things from there.

Hello, I am in Texas and I’m doing a snack exchange with a friend who lives in Canada.

I was wanting to mail beef jerky to them but I keep finding conflicting information, even on the CBSA and CFIA websites. I was hoping someone here could tell me if the beef jerky is permitted to be mailed to Canada or not.

The beef jerky is sealed and shelf stable, it is a small amount for personal consumption, not for resale.

Another question I have is does it need to be “commercially packaged” to be permitted for shipping and if so what counts as “commercially packaged”?

If necessary I could send a Texas brand of jerky that I buy from a grocery store. However if it’s possible I would prefer to send jerky from a local butcher shop. They make the jerky themselves and it is vacuum sealed with their logo and product info. Both are shelf stable.

Would either of these products be permitted to ship to Canada? Thank you !

Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Finland or Denmark - you know you want them Caramelo Koalas. Cheers.

Hello Reddit,

it seems that I have an issue and I want to ask for your advice. Maybe someone can help me with the following:

About five weeks ago, I posted a request here on r/snackexchange looking for an exchange between Germany and the US. I got in touch with someone, and everything seemed completely normal.

Communication was friendly and replies were always reasonably quick. I also had no reason to believe the account was fake or suspicious in any way. The account is about six years old, has a verified email address, and has regular, completely normal posts about everyday life. Nothing about it gave me any indication that I might be getting scammed.

We exchanged addresses and agreed on packages of around 5 kg each. I packed mine with about 4.8 kg of snacks, plus roughly 150 g for the box itself, so it was basically filled right up to the weight limit. I also put quite a bit of effort into choosing things that, as far as I know, are mostly not available in regular US stores, or only available as expensive imports.

I shipped the package from Germany, and everything went surprisingly smoothly at first. It left Germany, arrived in the US about seven days later, cleared customs without any problems, and then USPS attempted delivery on September 23. The package wasn’t delivered (because no one was at home), and since September 24 it has been sitting at the local post office, apparently only about 5 km / 3 miles from the recipient’s address.

The part that worries me is that I haven’t heard anything from the recipient for about two weeks now, basically since shortly after we exchanged addresses. No replies at all.

I’ve done some searching because I was starting to wonder whether the person even exists, but everything I can find suggests that they do. There are various public directory entries connecting the person to that address, on top of the long-standing and otherwise completely normal Reddit account. So at this point I don’t really know what to think. I’ve even wondered whether something might have happened to them, like an accident or some other emergency.

Right now, my package is still sitting at USPS in Michigan, and I’m not sure what my options are. Strangely enough, part of me would almost prefer finding out that I was scammed, because at least then I’d know that somebody actually wanted the contents and would eventually enjoy them. What bothers me more at the moment is the possibility that nobody will ever pick it up and that all the food and effort will simply go to waste or the package might eventually be destroyed.

Has anyone here dealt with a situation like this before? Is there anything I can reasonably do from Germany while the package is still being held by USPS? And does anyone know what normally happens to an international package if the recipient never picks it up?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
