Wool. For people learning the language, the lady working in the tourist shop gives you the Icelandic lesson of the day, and the wool you get can be worked into a handy pair of mittens or socks. 296 ISK per 100 metres of wool at Vík Wool, with similar prices at other shops. Available throughout the country.

Luxus Dried Banana Slices. 129 ISK for 250 grams at, you guessed it, 10-11. True, when dried you don’t get vitamins from fruit, but you do get roughage. Mmm. Roughage. And the package, if not the product itself, is from sunny Kópavogur, home of the largest shopping mall in the country.
