    P.S. Everyone knows Ontario is weird. Your milk comes in bags.
    Lol, I miss milk in bags... It doesn't have that awful wax taste of the milk in cartons.

    I vote for "normal" Crystal Light flavors (Fruit Punch) and sugarless Five flavors lifesavers.

    Trader Joe's. So many great items.

    I hear the US has more than one flavour for Oreos. And flavoured peanut butter. That sort of blows my mind.

    We have those things in Canada too, take a good poke around the grocery store next time you’re there! Right now our Superstore has, for Oreo flavours: apple pie, golden, cinnamon bun, and salted caramel.

    Are you in Ontario? I haven't seen these in Edmonton, Alberta.

    I’m in Calgary and we get all of those flavours at stores here. I’ve also seen them at the superstore in Nanaimo so I’m sure they are available in Edmonton.

    Then obviously I have not been spending enough time down the cookie aisle.

    Surely those things exist in Canada? Even in Australia we get strawberry, chocolate, and PB/choc Oreos as standard, and once we even had orange (flavoured, not just coloured filling)... Plus white choc and milk choc coated.
    (we get halo top too :D sorry!)

    But I hear in Australia you don't have the wide variety of milk products we enjoy here, like half-and-half.

    I'm in Edmonton too and I have seen tons of those flavoured Oreos around. They're not my thing but sometimes I'm tempted anyway just because they're new. I notice them often at Shoppers actually, as well as the Stadium Save-On.

    My vote is also for Halo Top. Sigh.

    No.... We just have skim (very low/no fat), hilo (low fat) and full cream milk.

    Half-and-half is so good!

    I'd like to see more native fruit in the stores, like Saskatoons.
