Without the Nutty Club in operation, I can’t really find anything made in Canada at all…

For chips we have Old Dutch and La Cochina and a few other good options. But I’m completely lost in the junk food aisle trying to find snacks for D&D.

    Both, but separately. When I was at Walmart last, I could find Belgian chocolate, British Wine Gums, etc. But I didn’t really want to shop at Walmart, since their profits will still be funneled to the US.

    So I went to my local Co-op. And everything there was basically Mars or Nestle or similar. Even the Co-op branded stuff was “imported by Co-op (Canada) under license” but wouldn’t give me country of manufacture. Haribo and Storck were there from Germany, so it my objective was only to not-buy American, I could pull it off.

    But the only things in the aisle that were provably Canadian were some of the chips and beef jerky.

    Ended up with a bag of Haribo gummy bears.

    Lots of other good advice in the comments, but I didn’t see any of these brands in my Winnipeg Co-op. Will keep hunting :)

      Thw co-op at St Vital Center has British candy in the international foods aisle (as well as from some other countries).
