For those Canadians out there that haven't yet heard, Halo Top is now in select stores in Canada.
It's available here in Windsor, ON at Metro stores and is selling for $5.99 for a pint until tomorrow and then it'll be $6.99.
It sold out pretty fast at the store closest to me but I found some at a store across town. A new shipment was supposed to arrive tonight according to the dairy manager.

I tried the sea salt caramel & the pancakes and waffles flavours so far. I would definitely buy the sea salt caramel again but not the pancakes & waffles. That one had an aftertaste of sweetener that I didn't like.

    Some definitely have more potent aftertaste than others. Oatmeal cookie is right up there in my favorite flavors, but I realllly wanna try the new Blueberry Crumble. /drool

    I checked a few days ago and there is apparently nowhere within 100 miles of either Calgary or Edmonton that sells it yet. Guess I'll be waiting a bit longer to see if it takes off elsewhere first!

    Candy Bar is my new favourite flavour, it's snickers like.

    The store locator says that it’s in Calgary and Edmonton (all of the stores are Superstores, I believe), and that the stores only have 4 flavours. Peanut Butter Swirl, Sea Salt Caramel, Pancakes & Waffles, and Oatmeal Cookie. I also read that it’s in the natural foods section, and not the ice cream section. My closest Superstore doesn’t have it listed on their website, so I don’t know if they actually have any yet.

    I checked Vancouver Island as well because I’m in Nanaimo a lot, and there’s a store in Parksville that supposidly has 22 flavours. Don’t know how accurate the Halo Top website info is, though, since we weren’t supposed to even get that many flavours up here. Who knows what’s actually going on.

    Might check in at Superstore later and see if there’s any there.

    Edit: That store in Parksville must have been a mistake because it’s not showing up anymore.

    Nope. It's here in little ol' Windsor, Ontario, too.

    Sea Salt Caramel! Oatmeal Cookie! I tried the Pancakes & Waffles but to me, it had a really strong aftertaste of sweetener ... almost bitter tasting. I even like the Chocolate so far and the Birthday Cake is good but I'm not sure it would be a favourite.

    We won't be getting the Blueberry Crumble up here in Canada. At least not yet. :/

    I understand! I didn't see the flyer for Metro until the day before yesterday and when I went to the closest store, they were already sold out.

    You would think that large cities like Calgary and Edmonton would be markets where they'd release things first. I'm not sure what the hell is wrong with the Canadian market when it comes to releasing products here. Do you guys have Metro stores there?

    No Metros in Alberta. According to the Halo Top website, the only Alberta stores that have it are Superstores.

    I really like the Sea Salt Caramel and the Oatmeal Cookie so far. I also just had a spoonful of the Candy Bar flavour and that's good too.
