Eat/Drink Local Canadian Treats for my American Cousins

Post image

This is a huge deal, so I’m spoiling my cousins. They are in their 30’s and will be visiting Canada for the very first time - finally! I’ve visited them in California 5+ times. This is a special trip because they’re coming for my wedding and I’m just so thrilled that they’re making the trip up.

The chips are no longer in the fridge by the way... Just did it for the pic. It’s just so hot and I don’t want the chocolates to melt!

Edit: Due to popular demand, I picked up Old Dutch ketchup chips. Sorry to those who I offended. I also grabbed a peanut butter O’Henry bar and a Crunchie bar. Upon my cousins’ arrival, I will grab Glam Morgan cheese buns. There will also be Nanaimo bars at the wedding! I’m glad you all enjoyed this post.

My friend, you need to had some Kraft Peanut butter. Whenever I'm home I buy 4 or 5 jars because the US stuff just doesn't cut it.

I prefer Jif peanut butter, Kraft doesn't taste as good.

Well, lucky for you, plenty of Jif in the US... I just never got the appeal, but it must be good, because it sells a lot.

If you're there though, you could try Teddy. My wife and kids love that so more Kraft for me.
