What strike to me most is that in England there are so many kinds (or types) of tea but there aren't any herbal teas in the supermarkets. You must go to others kind of different shops that more specific... I find this very annoying!
In general I miss many a lot of foods; in Spain there are more kinds of products. For example, the majority of cheese here is cheddar, and there isn't much choice. I miss chorizo, jamón, morcilla, mortadela... English bacon can never replace them!! It is the same with legumes [do you mean vegetables?]... and there isn't tomato sauce (not ketchup)!!
I can't find a good mature cheese but I can buy cards in the supermarket to congratulate somebody for his their new changed look!! English people love to give cards for everything. In this supermarket there are is a big shelf full of cards.
Furthermore However [furthermore means more information that agrees with the preceding paragraphs, but in the next sentence you are disagreeing with how different they are], supermarkets in England are like they are how in Spain. The same offers, the same questions, "do you want a bag?" "Do you have a membership card?" ...

However, supermarkets in England are also similar to those in Spain. They have the same offers and ask the same questions, such as "do you want a bag?" "Do you have a membership card?"
