Board 8 > So what are some good snacks from Canadia?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I'm being sent a box of Canadian snacks and they let me know I can put in requests

I think they are already sending Hickory Sticks and Ketchup Chips

theres a few candies too but I can't remember them atm

All dressed and dill pickle chips maybe? Coffee crisps are nice too.

thanks for sharing me my important memories today OneDrive

I love my dill pickle chips tho (literally used to be my nickame in grade 2 or 3). And yes Coffee Crisps are A+

as far as chips go, Ketchup Chips are pretty iconic, I also loved Zesty Doritos but apparently they were discontinued. Oh shit I always forget about Hickory Sticks too they're great. Ruffles All Dressed another all-time staple I go to a lot..... really lots of chips.

there's also Smarties which are different than American Smarties (which are called Rockets here). Mars Bar has an equivalent in Milky Way but I hear they're not exactly the same.

Jos Louis are a pastry like... chocolate circular twinkies.... and I mean you gotta get a maple dare cookie.

I should ask my sister what stuck out to her partner while he was staying here.

Smarties, Mr. Big, Mars Bars

as for cereals I mostly think of obviously big american brands although some times we get variations like this

lol, I had a box of these last year

Seconding the Coffee Crisp and ketchup chips

oh wait Shreddies is a canadian cereal, used to get that when I was younger

.... I can't find anything about Puffed Wheat I remember having

I THINK Coffee Crisp is covered

and Shreddies don't look too good Lol, I like Life cereal but theres something off about Shreddies

also I'm disappointed that Captain Crunch doesn't have leaf shapes

also ngl the pickle chips sound kind of nasty but I hate pickles

Ive heard Swedish Berries and Smarties are really good, but never had the opportunity to try either

I've never been big on pickles but I've been a fan of dill pickle chips since I was a kid refusing pickles on my mcdonalds burgers

*edit* ohhhh swedish berries are fantastic

They both are. I didn't realize that they were only available in Canada though.

Do Americans have Ringolos? Those are great too.

I wonder about getting a can of some Tim Hortons mix.... when I went to Japan I brought a can of their french vanilla mix with me

it's not gonna be the most unique item but hey tims is just big-time canadian brand

Ive never heard of Ringolos and our American Smarties are terrible

I think Smarties are covered, and I guess the definitive Ringolos would be ketchup as well?

They have these in the States. I've had them many times. They sure are good though!

Anyway, Pal-o-mine chocolate bars are something good that I've never seen here.

Yea I feel like I have seen those Ruffles before

side note
Are Queso Ruffles a southern thing? Or does everyone in the states got em?

I think I see them sometimes in Chicago but not often. Secret best Ruffles are double crunch hot wing flavor (if you like buffalo sauce).

Just normal Ringolos, the BBQ flavoured ones. I've never heard of ketchup flavoured ones.

Huh. Ive seen both ketchup and pickle chips a lot here in the Midwest. Id say theyre at most grocery stores around me. And I actually quite enjoy the pickle ones, particularly the spicy pickle variation. Are these not common throughout the rest of the US?

The pickle ones are here on the west coast (and I think were in stores last time I went home to the east coast?) Pretty good, imo! And I don't even like actual pickles very much.

I did this

response: Coffee Crisp, Caramilk, Rolo, Aero

agreeing on all counts although looking it up Rolos are from the UK... same for Aero even though that's one I always heard in these convos (and yes Aero is a definite staple chocolate)

speaking of it's kinda easy to find like bundles of mini chocolates made up of a lot of these reccs

I think Aero is covered

They had a run in the US in the single serve size. I wasn't huge on them, my brother loved them (but he loves pickles, period).

TIL that the US doesn't have dill pickle chips

Timbits
