Frozen food, well it is winter

JANUARY 14, 2008

It is time for some product/brand names.

I found my favorite sugar substitute, Splenda with brown sugar, is not Canadian…it is American.

As for fruits, well, I found frozen strawberries from Nova Scotia, Knol Farms. Canadian Frozen Blueberries, Europe’s Best. I checked everything on this packaged….it says Canada on the front, and product of Canada on the back…so I guess the company is Canadian, even though most of their products are not…just the blueberries.

I could not find fresh or frozen spinach. None Canadian. I found Canadian frozen broccoli and a package of frozen vegetables. Brand name - Arctic Gardens. I did find fresh leeks that can be frozen. I have often used this product. You can just grab a handful anytime you want. Brand name of Les Cultures de Chez Nous Inc.

I found Sobeys downtown had the poorest selection. Superstore on the Southside, not too bad, but my pick for this week is Sobeys uptown. It had the best Canadian frozen selection. I have yet to try the Superstore and Sobeys on the northside.
