A bomb. It's the one thing you probably won't be pulled up on by American customs.

McVities
Cadburys chocolate
Harrods Tea or anything from Harrods store in LHR
Branston Pickle
Marmite
Tea towels or other souvenirs with London landmarks etc on (they don't know/give a toss about anywhere else in England)
Ambrosia / Birds Custard
Proper ale/cider

That's all I can think of for now

Their flail English?

Most of the obvious contenders I'd think of have already been mentioned but how about Rose's Lime Marmalade? Very refreshing on toast and annoyingly I don't have any in the house...

Please give them back all of their rubbish TV shows. We don't want their kind over here!

Oh, and Baked Beans, Custard Creams, Twinings Teas, some really good chocolate such as Hotel Chocolate and the Benny Hill theme music to play while US customs are checking it all out?
