Sorry to drag up an old thread, but I had to share the never-ending wonderment living in Canada bestows. They now have smoky bacon flavoured crisps. Just another step on the long march towards enlightenment. Good stuff all round.

They have been around forever. Not very good really.

I found these last week and was also very happy. You can never have too much bacon or bacony products.

My cardiologist would disagree with you on that point.

Ahh what do they know....okay probably more than I do...BUT bacon....it's just so divine..!

My issue with bacon-flavoured anything is that it just makes me want bacon. Lots and lots of bacon.

Oh don't get me wrong, I'm in full agreement with you.

Read this thread and had to toast all you guys with a bacon, egg and mushroom sarnie this evening. With lots of HP sauce. Someone please tell me that the oft-revered British Brekkie Sandwich is a common sight in Canada...I may have to withdraw my application if not...

On a seperate note, during a recce visit last year I found one of those british stores near Kitchener...saw a nearly out of date jar of Branston pickle for somewhere approaching 6 quid and nearly stormed out of the store in disgust. I'd rather realign my tastebuds than bow to such blatant extortion

See, now you say that when you know you can go into Tesco and get a giant jar for 10p, but when you can't find any, anywhere you WILL pay $6 and you will be pleased that it is only 3 weeks out of date

Rest of Canada, I dunno. We get them at the St. Lawrence Market. On balance, I don't think I need ever have bothered with Canada beyond that block.

Not a common sight around here at all, but it's a good place if you have bad taste in fancy dress outfits.

It's usually in the baking aisle, rather than with jams / peanut butter where you would look in UK. Find the yeast / baking powder and you are in the right vicinity. (Marmite that is)

Not likely over here. Better to stock up on these.

Grim. Does anyone actually eat those things? I could not eat meat out of a tin if you paid me. Maybe I am just odd?

You've never had ham from a tin?? Or corned beef?? Odd? tee hee
