British Expat's Sausage Roll Obsession in Denmark

0:00On March 12, a 29-year-old woman from London has been living in Copenhagen, Denmark for the past six years, chasing a better life abroad. But one thing she can't leave behind is her love for Greg Sausage Rolls. Isabel Kube stalks her freezer with dozens of them, currently holding 24 from six packets spot on four for three deals. Every trip back to the UK turns into a major restock mission. She packs them into her hand luggage for the 610-mile journey home. While Denmark boasts a top-notch food scene, including a local Sausage pastry called a pulse horn, Isabel says nothing matches the flaky, savory, goodness of the British classic. She even squeezes in some M&S hot cross buns when she can. Her Danish boyfriend and friends have tasted the treats, and they become a hit at gatherings, reheated in the air fryer with sauces on the side. But she's put a strict no-touch rule on her partner after he over-hyped him one too many times. The rolls are strictly for her homesick moments or serious cravings.

Stories like Isabel's remind us how food ties us to home, no matter where life takes us.
