I've discovered that you can buy Heinz spaghetti here. This country never ceases to amaze me.

The great thing about Canada is that you can empty your new can of Heinz spaghetti into a bowl, cold, and call it pasta salad. Serve with green coleslaw.

Well I just found McVittie's Ginger Nuts at my local Co-op!!!! I'm in taste heaven. Right next to the Walker's Oatmeal thingies, the digestives and the various Hobnobs!

Oopps - forgot note of sarcasm and insincerity necessary for Brit humor!

But I did wonder - since these were in the British foods section - since when did "we" Brits start eating Cherry tomatoes out of a tin can? There was other weird food there too. And Mango Chutney was $8!!!!

I can't find it anywhere. I got my mum and dad to send me a big jar, along with a few other essentials (Instant gravy and dumpling mixes)
