Last trip to the grocery store I couldn't find any non-US salad kits, and Silk NextMilk is made down there now, because I guess our plants were the listeria ones. Chip dip was surprisingly hard to find too, although I did it.

I'm very pleased with how many vegetables actually come from Mexico (definitely via the US though), and there's even a few things you can get from greenhouses, so that situation is less dire than I'd expected.

Anyone have suggestions for Canadian cat food that isn't overpriced? I've got like 15 cats so I go through a lot in a month.

Most Purina products are at least produced and manufactured in Canada. I have been using the beyond line of products and my cats love it.

Sadly, it is a mega agro corp.

I guess it uses Canadian farms, but Purina is owned by Nestlé.

Dammit.

I knew there was a catch.

Huh TIL. I've mainly been feeding them that and the co-op stuff (Which they don't care for so I usually blend them together.)

Acana is Canadian, though they are not super cheap but certainly not the most expensive either. My dogs like it, and one of them is a picky eater.
