Sharing is caring!

Today I bring you JUNK FOOD in all its Glory. 10 count em 10 awesome snacks, made only in Canada.  Ok well maybe only available in Canada. 10 Canadian Snacks for you to try next time you visit.

I have scoured the web and found ten pieces of snacky goodness that I think you will love. OK really I did not scour the web I searched my blog and remembered back in the day I created this post.  I have decided to update my pictures and take the outfit away because who needs clothes when there is chocolate.  Well I need clothes, actually we all need them but maybe not in pictorial form when dreaming of snacks.

10 Canadian Snacks you need to try

10 Canadian Snacks

1) Smarties and in Canada these are chocolate.( When you eat your  smarties, do you eat the red ones last, do you suck them very slowly or crunch them very fast…. I do not know a Canadian that does not know this song) Smarties, our answer to M & M’s

Smarties in Canada
2) Coffee Crisp – How do you like your coffee? CRISP, as famous as “Where’s the Beef” here in Canada
( Fun fact a petition in the US to bring the chocolate bar there was successful in 2006 but then they stopped it in 2009)

3) Caramilk Bar– How do you get that caramel in the caramilk Bar?  The secret is forever being sought

4) Crispy Crunch – The only thing better than your Crispy Crunch is someone else’s…

5) Ketchup Chips – we do love our ketchup ( did you know one of the new Canadian Flavours, Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Ketchup, cuz nothing is better then dipping that sandwich in Heinz)

6) Kinder Eggs – ( Banned in the US) Each Kinder Surprise egg consists of a chocolate shell, a plastic capsule, the contents of said capsule, and an external foil wrap. ( not a Canadian Original, Italy takes credit for this one, but available widely in our nation)

7) Maynards Cherry Blasters– similar brands in the US but Maynard’s is the best

9) Crush Cream Soda (That’s the actual name and only time we call Pop- soda) Pink pop in a pink can and as an FYI now it is also being made in an Adult Version.  Hard Cream Soda ( or made with alcohol)

 10) and saving the best for last for Me  Diet Pepsi Lime– I used to have to buy this in the good ole US of A, then they stopped making it, and the outcry must have been loud enough in Canada that they brought it back,
