Things that you have in the US that I miss in Canada:
Permethrin spray - mosquito killer/repellant (banned in Canada)
Jiffy instant corn muffin mix
iTunes Store that actually has stuff worth buying

Food-wise: Marmite. I ran out a few months ago and am now seriously 'jonesing.'
Clothes: I do miss my cheap-o uniqlo
(edit: I just found that there is one store in NYC.)
I suppose those have been commodified to some degree...
