Myself and all expats I know always bring back Bisto from the UK and have never been stopped nor questioned about it.

Yes, there is no meat in Gravy Granules so it's okay to import. I am currently back in Scotland and have 3 large tubs (only cost 1 quid each tub) to pack in my case - I am more concerned about the weight!

Mmmmm shall I look for packets of undeclared Bisto today or look for drugs, child porn, prohibited weapons etc etc.
Tough call to make

That explains why bisto is expensive and drugs/weapons are cheap

Use the CFIA AIRS tool as that is what will determine if CBSA allow it in.

Use gravy as commodity word search then just follow along with the drop down boxes.

No wonder kids love the stuff after reading the ingredients. It's full of unhealthy shit that tingles the tastebuds making them want more. Like the shit ingredients of lots of the squash people rave about. No wonder some kids are a little bit mental
It's child abuse
It's really not that hard to make your own gravy.
