Stuff You Cannot Get in Canada

[polak]

All this vanilla coke talk reminds me of Pepsi Blue, which came out around the same time. Apparently it's still available in some countries.

Asian Zing is by far the best sauce they have

Living in Australia at the moment, and some of the stuff I would miss off the top of my head:

Fun fact: Wunderbar is actually the special-edition peanut butter version of this chocolate bar. I like the original better.


Quite possibly the best soft drink ever made.

Some Canadian stuff I miss:


We actually have a Kicking Horse Coffee stockpile. It's actually really hard to find non-espresso coffee at coffee shops here. Otherwise, people seem to drink putrid instant coffee.
etc etc etc
I try and substitute Toohey's Old but it's not the same. It seems to me that places with cold weather tend to make better beer (UK, Canada, Northern Europe). With all due respect (and maybe I'm looking in the wrong places) but 95%+ of Aussie beer seems to be the exact same slightly hoppy lager - at least in QLD.

I should probably edit the thread title.. it is poorly worded now that I see it.

edit: looks like I can't.

Thanks. Epicure had some and so did the cigar shop by campers village.

I didn't think it would be that ridiculously hard to get in Canada. Also, I was fully expecting a slew of smart-assed answers to that question.

Nando's in the UK compared to Nando's in Canada. The UK restaurants are way better in terms of taste and menu options.

After a while it stops allowing you to change the thread title.

I put Nando's extra extra hot sauce on everything. And I used to think Siracha was good. All those wasted years!

How does it differ from the natural peanut butter you can get here?

[North East Goon]

During my last stop in Montana, I had a Cucumber Gatorade, it kind of grew on me.

[undercoverbrother]

So good.

[Paladium]

Can we get mexican coke here? The drink that is.

[photon]

Some of the latin markets carry it (I'm pretty sure), and I've read that some bottles of the 2L with a specific cap colour are kosher and have cane sugar instead of corn syrup.

[MRCboicgy]

I like Mexican Pepsi down there
