So who has been sending this lady Canadian candies?
I reckon a 40 foot container would last her a month

Although not Canadian but will be available in Canada by 2014 this should excite lovers of certain chocolate bars.

Some pretty disgusting candy came back from school this week in the form of Valentine gifts. Even the Candy Queen in the house turned her nose up at it
I love cinnamon but it's just horrible in candy.

Peanut Butter M&M's... Not available in the UK... Infact most Peanut Butter based sweets are not available in the UK.
Just to settle the debate on Jelly Belly Beans - Yes you can get them easily in the UK and have been able to for a long time

Selfridges at the Trafford Centre and Birmingham Bullring do a range of North American goodies (albeit pricey)

Think I'm just going to run up to Walmart and see how much I can get for $20!
Also agree that peanut-buttery things are a good option!
