Hang on! Weren't you just spouting on on the other thread about how immigrants should 'integrate'. Surely this is a perfect example of non-integration??? Isn't the point that you shouldn't cling to old customs, habits and likes? :thumbdown:

Good to hear it tastes right. I will get some next time. This trip I bought some Maple Leaf ham that tastes like British type ham. It was called all natural or something, non cured cooked ham.

Galen Westons family owns Selfridges don't they? I often think the adverts are like the Waitrose ones and that the Presidents Choice range of things is getting more British. That's fine with me.

Why should I be less two faced than everyone else?

Obviously the Canadians are a diverse and cosmopolitan people who have eclectic tastes. Besides, Wiltshire is a foreign food to me. :p

I just checked the packet. It's called Natural Selections Non Cured Baked Ham

-wish I could think of something witty to say re natural selection, Darwin, cured ham and all that. I'm sure someone will though.

Time for a trip to the store methinks.....:thumbsup:

Re: english back bacon
 

Although its Maple Leaf I agree this isnt bad. You can also get a smoked ham and a turkey in the same range.

Isn't it maple leaf that keep poisoning everyone?
