That hasn't come out yet, I don't think it has anyway. I checked with C4 and Uk is only a couple of episodes behind.

For those in Calgary missing their Cadbury's milk chocolate fix we were over at Market Mall this afternoon and in "The Bay" on the second floor they have 1Kg bars with UK flag on them indicating country of origin.

Price is a little steep at $16.99 per bar, but then those of you who "need" your fix won't mind paying. Will you?;):p

They also have Milk Tray, Chocolate Fingers and some other stuff all imported from the UK.

Have you tried Thrifties? They sell it at various Thrifties in Victoria. If they don't carry it just ask them to... they're usually good about getting products on the shelf that their customers actually want.

Yes, it's hard to find. President's choice is usually available in Loblaws. In the summer fresca and gin is nice, as is dry ginger. Sometimes I am forced to drink dry martinis, with an olive. :p
