    The really REALLY big bottle of Bailey's. I'm from the US but in Toronto right now. Went to an LCBO the other day and almost cried at the size of the bottles you guys have here. I've never seen bottles that big.

    Omg this! I saw those bottles when I went to Winnipeg a few weeks ago. Holy hades I wish to the dear lord baby jesus that they sold them here. It was like 4 handles worth of liquor.
  • Dill pickle chips, ketchup chips and coffee crisps!

    We have these.

    I've been able to find Coffee Crisp and crappy lays Dill Pickle in the import section of Wegmans. But nowhere in VA have I been able to find Ketchup! What brand and where?!


    Lays had ketchup chips for a while here in TX. Zapp's has a cajun dill chip that I like, not really Canadian though.

    Smarties in America = what we call Rockets in Canada. Also what A-holes give out on Halloween.

    Haha, they ended up growing on be, being a chubby girl in need of a sugar fix I would reluctantly eat them. But they'd always be the last in the bag! Other than those disgusting black and orange wrapped caramels. We'd just set those on fire! P.S I love your avatar, I totally wanted to order that shirt! Fave part of the movie!

    Know what you're talking about with the chicken bones, love those!!! Pink sticks of cinnamon candy filled with chocolate, one of my faves!!! And Red Rose tea, my grandmother used to buy loads of that and Purity products like they were going out of style!!! LOL :laugh:

    I think they are called skittles in Canada but they are similar to m&ms here in the states? I always buy some of those when I go to Canada!

    Hey.... I live in AZ and I love Skittles, I also love M&M's.... I've been to Canada too, it's pretty much the same. Maybe where you are from they don't have Skittles, but that's weird because I know that they are everywhere. hahaha.

    As a Canadian, It has always baffled me why the U.S has a ban on Kinder Surprise Eggs! If they are safe enough for us Canadians, what is so dangerous for the Americans?! Anyway, why not send something hockey related? or Canadian Maple syrup!! :)
