Blame the Canadian government. It's as close as you'll come in Canada unfortunately. I'm going to Vegas in 2 weeks. May have to pick up a pack so I can compare. Hehe

I've seen it, and had it in Canada once or twice, and it's the best energy drink I've had, but damned if I've been able to find it since.

Yup... I went down to Buffalo yesterday, got a bottle of it there. So they definitely have it in the US.

Just like they still have Vanilla Coke!

Whenever I go to the US, I have to get a monster bag of Malt-O-Meal Colossal Crunch with Crunchberries. It is really just a rip-off of Cap'n Crunch with crunchberries, but you can get it at Walmart for around $4 per 2 lb. bag.

Something you can't get in Calgary is Vernor's Ginger Ale. I've loved that stuff since I was a kid. It is available in southern Ontario, so I always pick some up whenever I visit home.

Cheese-filled Combos - I have found a few places locally that carry them, but it is pretty rare around these parts.

I am not sure if it was said previously. But snickers makes a protein/energy bar that they were giving out after my half marathon and they were delicious

"I'll take 'Things that confirm you're a tech geek' for $500 Alex".

I like how its labelled as a "computer accessory" along with powerbars, mouse pads and compressed air.

They just have to add golden twinkies and sleeping pills to the product lineup and nerds can have a 1 stop shop to be able to bunker down with all necessary supplies for a good 10 days.

Have half a case left of this from the last road trip to the US where I picked up a few, so only drank on special occasions.



Got through these pretty quick, prefer the cherry though.

I remember Vanilla Coke but you can mix regular Coke with vanilla extract and it tastes just the same.
