I still seek out British made chocolates by smaller outfits when I see them. Not sure why or how, but some luxury Brit chocolate ( Charbonel et Walker) and Irish chocolate ends up at our Winners and Homesense discount stores.

Even though Nadia G no longer resides in the St. Leonard borough of Montréal, I consider her truly Canadian.

I can get down with a Coffee Crisp bar kinda a better big kat Kit Kat.
Too much candy shell on smarties for me but I’d still eat em.
My favorites are the aero and mint aero bars.
Well obviously it’s going to be poutine, Nanaimo Bars, butter tarts, Yorkshire pudding, and something made with pea meal bacon? Sorry to stereotype! Oh and Tortiere. Maybe some maple leaf cookies.
You good people are all missing the obvious

How could I forget
The Canadian Pizza
(Hawaiian with Bacon).
Because everything tastes better with Bacon !
Although the pizza pie was not created in Canada, the topping combination was and that makes it Canadian in my eyes.
Invented by a Greek immigrant named Sam Panopoulos at his Satellite Restaurant in Chatham, Ontario, before he moved to London, Ontario , where he and his brother ran the Family Circle Restaurant on Wharncliffe Road.
I went to school with his nephew.
The original Hawaiian pizza from Chatham is pineapple, ham and onions, but there are now many variations.
That’s interesting didn’t know that.
I do know where you can get a bag of chicken potato chips or ketchup or pickle flavored.
One of my all-time favorite movies - Max Von Sydow, Hosehead!
Let me introduce you to Storm Chips
And the Weekender ( available at Farm Boy and Sobey’s, Ontarians)
Hell yes. I prefer onion and cheese, browned. Wash it down with a Zywiec.
I recall going up there as a tike and we’d always bring back a raspberry and blackberry preserve. Malkin’s, I think it was. That, to me, was Canada. I would think wild game, smoke fish, or lake trout fried in Canola. Maybe dress up in a hockey uniform with some teeth blacked out.
I’ve hear that Canadian Twix are inferior to the US version. I attribute this to the Canadian factories making both sides in one place. Let’s get it together, eh!
