Greetings from Sunny LA

Post Mon Mar 24, 2003 4:07 pm

Originally from Toronto, I've been living in the LA area for a few yrs now. Things I miss about home: Vachon Half Moon Cakes, Jo Luis cakes (sp?), Lick's Burgers, rhoti, street hot dogs.

Things I don't miss: snow, ice, freezing rain, hail, mosquitos, Holt Renfrew, Yorkville.

Plus I miss Poutine, and Hockey Night in Canada.

There used to be a company in SoCal that imported Canadian food (Tim Hortons Coffee, St. Huberts Poutine sauce) but they don't seem to exist anymore.

I miss wine gums, eat more's, and real twizzlers. Tim Horton's too.

Here is an online store where you can buy canadian products like Frye's Cocoa, Tim Horton coffee and all the candy I said above. (I haven't used it yet--someone just told me about it)

All generalizations are bad.

I hope it's OK, but thought I would add that I am the owner of an online company selling Canadian chocolate bars online... http://www.expatriate.ca

At the moment we are only selling chocolate bars, but are always adding new products, and will definitely try to add new products that people miss most from home...

Sincerely,

expat_ca

I noticed some one posting about missing canadian candy, cereal, foods etc in the states, every now and then I order from these folks,
http://www.panhandlepremium.com they sell all of our homesick curing goodies. check em out.
but remember to order before it gets too hot, chocolate gets goey.
but they will pack in ice pack for small fee and ship over night
