It must be said that there are a large number of Irish and (especially) British foodstuffs available on the island, which is why this list is not over-long. For example Kerrygold butter is in every shop, and Irish beef and lamb is very easy to find too, as is (British) Cadbury chocolate which many Irish emigrants in the U.S. pine for.
However there are those few items you sometimes wish you could get your hands on, although there's always the friendly neighbourhood internet to help in such cases...
Here's my list, and if you see any of these in a Maltese supermarket be sure to let me know:
5. Butler's Chocolate
Bit of a luxury product to kick off with, so not exactly an everyday staple, but these chocolates are pretty special. I got a box of them in the post last summer from my generous aunt, and even though the Maltese sun had turned them into an amorphous glob, they still tasted great. That, my friend, is the sign of good chocolate.
