Good God. Chocolate and Vegemite? I can't imagine that even the most Australian person in the world would think that those flavours would work together.

So far we have confirmed sightings at:
7-11
Sobeys
Safeway
Walmart

All I have seen is the 500 ml bottles for $2 each. Has anybody seen any other forms? Like cases of cans, etc?

I hope Jolly Good is stuck with a bunch. The place in Kensington was selling a 12 pack of cans for $18. A little pricey, but within reason. Jolly Good wanted $36 for a case.

This is a reach, but has anyone seen this frozen Japanese rice dish anywhere in Calgary?

http://www.ajifrozenusa.com/products..._nutrition.asp



Costco had it for a few months but now I've been to 3 different locations and it looks like they've stopped carrying it. Easily the best frozen rice dish I've ever had, with some Sriracha sauce it's amazing. But of course after I get hooked on them Costco pulls it and the manufacturer doesn't ship anywhere outside the US

Are they selling it in cans anywhere besides the candy shops in Kensington? The bottles aren't a good use of space.

I don't know about you but I generally try to avoid buying things out of vans. Especially food or drink products.

Why? There was a dude outside of Chinook that had a shipping error in his favour and was over-stocked on cherry coke and was selling them for a heck of a deal from his van!

That van looks very trustworthy to me. I would say red vans are the most trustworthy of all van colours.

Do they sell Combos in Canada now? I remember when I was a kid you could only buy them in the States and I would always pig-out when I went with my family. I also remember at one time Pringles were only sold in the States. Used to eat an entire tube of Sour Cream and Onion in one sitting.

yeah, combos are in Canada. I've seen them at the whole sale superstore (the one owned by loblaws)

Cherry coke is everywhere! Superstore, Sunterra, even the stampede food stands. They arent sold in cases though.


FYI save on foods sells Coke Vanilla in cans

Why does Canadian Cream Soda have a pink colour? Cream soda is a champagne colour and often real cream is added to it here in the States.

I'd like to know why I can't buy Diet Pepsi Cherry at Costco. That's such garbage.

Do my fellow Canadians not enjoy flavour?!

I can't believe you guys resurrected this thread, aka I forgot this existed lol.

Um... needless to say Cherry Coke has now disappeared from my local Macs. So there's that.
