Tell me more of this... bunny yoga.
I didn't want to create something redundant if it did exist, but I don't see anything. I'll put some thought into what form it could take and what sorts of things would be reasonable to include.
For years I had one fork leftover from when I first moved out on my own. Every single time I got that fork, I was disappointed because it was so light and flimsy compared to all the other forks.
Then one day I realized.... I could just throw out the fork. The fork was adding no value to my life. I had other forks. So I threw it out and then felt vaguely sad for some reason I could not identify.
So I guess that was my favourite fork.
Tried the Farm Girl cereal that was mentioned in a post recently. Some thoughts.
- It was expensive. Like $16 at the store for a 280 gram bag. It looks like it's much cheaper ($11) on their website, so next time I'll pick it up from there.
- This is a low carb, high fibre, high protein cereal so not really a 1:1 replacement for regular breakfast cereals.
- It's really filling. Normally cereal leaves me hungry like an hour after, but this one didn't at all.
- Tastes pretty good, though it definitely has that 'sugar substitute' aftertaste.
- I tried the chocolate puffs and they were smaller than I expected, but I liked the crunchy texture.
Definitely would recommend if you have dietary restrictions that would make it a good fit for you. (I do, which is why it's worth the price for me.)
I've been enjoying these pretzels. They're kinda expensive but I can get them at a local shop so I usually try to grab a different flavour every week when I walk by there. (So far the dill pickle is my favourite by far.)

I haaate how many brands have switched to those stupid little detergent pods. My local grocery store only has like one brand that still has powder and it's American.
Will definitely take a look into the 'Unscented Company.' Edit: Ah, looks like they only have those 'tabs.' I like the power because you can measure it out.
I was looking for a new dog food brand recently because my dog's kibble was American. I tried the 'Inukshuk' one I saw recommended on here in a different thread. The ingredients seem good and I liked that I could order a sample bag for $5 rather than committing to an entire bag without knowing if my dog would like it because she's extremely picky. Took about two weeks to arrive in interior BC from when I ordered it.
(My dog does like it, but that's a pretty subjective criteria. Some dogs are pickier than others.)
When I was paying at a local shop recently, I mentioned to the owner I'm trying to pay cash now rather than card because Visa is a US company and he he thanked me, since using a credit card costs them money.
Suggestion: A weekly challenge thread for people to try at least one new Canadian product and post about it.
I've been doing this in my personal life. I find it shifts my thinking away from 'ugh, I can't find X' and more towards 'Hey, what options are there that I have never considered because I've been sleepwalking through shopping and buying brands I recognize?"
Am I the only one who was surprised to realize This Hour has 22 Minutes still exists?
Good suggestion. I'll check that one next time I'm in there. I didn't see anything Canadian-made at London Drugs, though.
That sounds intensely therapeutic.
