10 South Indian Snacks You Can Now Get Delivered in Ireland

Every Indian living abroad knows the suitcase economy. Someone's flying back from Chennai or Pune? The requests start immediately: "Just two packets of murukku. Okay, maybe three. And if there's space, some mixture..." Here's the good news: the suitcase era is over. These ten beloved snacks are now available for delivery anywhere in Ireland — Dublin, Cork, Galway, or the most remote corner of Donegal. 1. Thenkuzhal Murukku The classic. Crisp rice-and-urad-dal spirals that snap perfectly and pair with absolutely everything — evening coffee, afternoon tea, or straight from the packet at 11pm. GRB Town Bus makes a version that tastes exactly like the ones from shops back home. 2. Butter Murukku Thenkuzhal's softer, richer cousin. A2B's (Adyar Ananda Bhavan) butter murukku melts in your mouth in a way that makes one packet feel dangerously small. If you've ever queued at an A2B counter in Chennai, you know precisely what this tastes like. 3. Mullu Murukku The star-shaped one with the gentle heat. A2B's mullu murukku has that signature ridged crunch and the mild spice that keeps your hand going back to the packet. Non-negotiable during Krishna Jayanthi — but honestly, it needs no occasion. 4. Madras Mixture Is it sev? Is it boondi? Is it peanuts and curry leaves? It's everything at once, and that's the point. Madras mixture is chaos in the best possible way — the snack equivalent of Ranganathan Street. GRB's version gets the balance exactly right. 5. Chitale Bakarwadi Pune's most famous export. Sweet, spicy, tangy spirals with a filling that shouldn't work but absolutely does. Chitale Bandhu has been making bakarwadi since 1939, and Maharashtrians in Ireland have been known to ration their last packet like treasure. That era is over too. 6. Khara Sev Thick, fiery gram-flour strands with a proper chilli kick. Khara sev is what you serve when someone says Indian snacks are "just crisps." Crumble it over poha, upma, or curd rice — or eat it as nature intended, by the fistful. 7. Banana Chips Golden, crispy, lightly salted slices — the pride of Kerala. Real banana chips fried the traditional way taste nothing like the sad dried banana in health-food aisles. These are the ones that vanish before the guests arrive. 8. Cornflakes Chivda The lighter side of snacking. Chitale's cornflakes chivda is crunchy, mildly spiced and disturbingly easy to finish while watching one episode of anything. The Maharashtrian answer to "something to nibble with chai." 9. Masala Peanuts Crunchy, spice-coated peanuts that improve every gathering. Cricket match on? Masala peanuts. Friends over? Masala peanuts. Just a rainy Irish Tuesday? You already know. 10. Shankarpali The sweet finish. Flaky, gently sweet diamonds that every Maharashtrian and many South Indian households made by the tin during Diwali. Chitale's shankarpali tastes like festival mornings at your grandmother's house. The suitcase can retire now Every snack on this list is stocked at One Place Bazaar and delivered from Dublin to anywhere in Ireland, usually within 1–2 working days. Orders over €50 ship free — which, let's be honest, is easy to reach once the murukku goes in the cart. Browse the full Snacks collection and stock the shelf properly.
