Tayto crisps, Cadbury chocolate and Kerrygold butter are the brands Irish emigrants miss the most.

The latest Diaspora Decides study by Checkout magazine also shows that Denny rashers are missed by 49% of respondents and sausages are missed by 48% of those living overseas.

64% of the 500 respondents said that they missed Tayto when overseas - up from 61% last year - with 36% saying they miss the crisp brand 'a lot'.

While Cadbury chocolate is missed by 56% of respondents, up from 53% last year. Kerrygold is also missed by 56% of people - up from 54%.

Barry's is the tea of choice for those living abroad at 49%, followed by Lyons at 47%.

The survey asked which products people felt were of a higher quality in Ireland.

In line with last year's findings, stout scores highest - with 75% saying that they feel it is of a better quality in Ireland.

Also scoring highly are prepacked rashers - 72% said they thought Irish products are of a higher quality, followed by sausages (62%), butter (61%) and milk (57%).
