Gravy on fries?? Not sure about that one!</p> <p>I think we need a Canada /USA swap so we can send each other goodies from our region :silly: </p> <p>@Sophs Mama: I just looked it up - what's icing sugar? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/watch-americans-try-canadian-snack-food#post-1808527 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 00:41:59 +0000 sunny 1808527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Peanut: I think it is less waste perhaps? (Eg. Less plastic used than a jug). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/watch-americans-try-canadian-snack-food#post-1808453 Sun, 10 Aug 2014 22:29:27 +0000 Mrs. Peanut 1808453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My curiosity is piqued over milk in a bag! What are the advantages to it being in a bag instead of a jug or bottle? I've never heard of that before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/watch-americans-try-canadian-snack-food#post-1807196 Sat, 09 Aug 2014 16:31:14 +0000 BananaPancakes 1807196@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't know what any of these things are! But I've never been close to Canada and I don't actually know any Canadians, so it's not surprising. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/watch-americans-try-canadian-snack-food#post-1807151 Sat, 09 Aug 2014 15:39:40 +0000 MrsB2012 1807151@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>this is the worst thread for a pregnant person. I want naniamo bars so bad now. Only I prefer mine with adding mint extract to the custard and adding green food dye. The best way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/watch-americans-try-canadian-snack-food#post-1807123 Sat, 09 Aug 2014 15:07:13 +0000 tysonja 1807123@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i always forget that all dressed flavoured chips are not available in the us! they're my fav flavour! :)</p> <p>I love perusing the candy and snacks aisles when down in the states... you guys have neat things, too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/watch-americans-try-canadian-snack-food#post-1807104 Sat, 09 Aug 2014 14:22:54 +0000 Fronkinzankinsbride 1807104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Heh that was almost as entertaining as the milk in a bag discussion. That blew my mind! I've never heard of the dressed chips, but I seriously have a craving for some ketchup chips now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/watch-americans-try-canadian-snack-food#post-1807075 Sat, 09 Aug 2014 13:48:17 +0000 travelgirl1 1807075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Chocolate: @babycanuck: In England we eat this all the time (shredded cheese instead of curds though) and it's called cheesy chips and gravy :wink: We thought having a fancy name like poutine was hilarious when we first moved to Canada. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/watch-americans-try-canadian-snack-food#post-1807044 Sat, 09 Aug 2014 12:52:59 +0000 sunny 1807044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Chocolate: I saw some in the frozen section at Trader Joes but I haven't had a chance to try them myself yet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/watch-americans-try-canadian-snack-food#post-1807036 Sat, 09 Aug 2014 12:28:49 +0000 Sophs Mama 1807036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If anyone wants to try Nanaimo bars, go to the cities website for the recipe. I hail from Nanaimo, BC, and it's a travesty if you try any other recipe. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/watch-americans-try-canadian-snack-food#post-1807026 Sat, 09 Aug 2014 12:12:09 +0000 Synchronicity 1807026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@babycanuck: LOL I love that you used the word smothered.

"How do you shake your milk?" "So it's just *open* in your fridge?" Haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/watch-americans-try-canadian-snack-food#post-1806995 Sat, 09 Aug 2014 11:33:56 +0000 Beebug 1806995@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Amazing.

I have heard of sightings in WA state but I haven't been able to find them myself.
