You can get both IBC root beer and Cookie Crisp cereal in Canada and I'm pretty sure you can get Fruity Pebbles these days too.

Here are some things I can think of:
Hostess Pies
Tastykakes
Zapp's chips

I'm pretty sure you can get Fruity Pebbles these days too.

Canadian Pebbles are made from corn while American Pebbles are made from rice. Not sure what the reason for that is.

[Komskies]

Not sure if you can get these in Canada. I haven't seen them.

I'm glad I don't live in the USA, because I'd be 500 pounds from all the delicious foods.

Are you implying that there aren't plenty of delicious foods in Canada?

Izze Sodas, especially Sparkling Birch

It's like Dr. Pepper multiplied by awesome!

Also, I found this blurb on a vendor site while searching for this pic

"In 2001, Pibb Xtra was introduced as a bolder version of the original Mr. Pibb taste. Its bold taste and graphics appeal to young adults who are looking to get the most out of life and the most out of their soft drink. It appeals to teens who are just gaining independence from home and looking for things to call their own. The soft drink enables them to have an uninhibited, fun and unconventional attitude and touts the sweet, refreshing bold taste they need to express their independence."

HAHA, so apparently this soft drink is a required part of life.

Not for the OP, but American ice cream puts Canada to shame. Both selection and also price. Dreyers Butterfinger is the bomb; they have like 15-20 other flavors as well.

We also brought back a couple of containers of Breyers that sell for $6-8 in Canada. We paid $2.50 each. Also brought back some Ben & Jerry's; Haagen Das is also cheaper if you want the more expensive stuff.

They also have Klondike bars (regular, Reese version, oreo version, Heath version) that are cheaper, but they tend to melt faster on the trip home

and i never knew they had vanilla coke zero! gonna have to pick some up next time im in the states!

Yeah, but they also have a lot of low fat/ low cal foods that we don't have up here.

Fat free Pringles- once you get your body adjusted to handle the Olestra; they are awesome!

apparently its a relatively new flavour; other specialty soda companies make it, but Izze is more common in semi-regular stores down here

Is that a used condom sticking out of the burger in the bottom two pics?

Tell him to take a Jack in the Box hostage and move it up here.

Why get a Baby Ruth, when we have the far superior Sweet Marie? If you want good chocolate bars go to the English Shoppes around town. The only junk food the states has that we dont is a bunch of spicy chips in all different sorts of flavours. Like Flaming hot Cheetos etc.
