If Coke etc are canned in Canada do they get tariffs? The Canadian people deserve better than PC cola.

They shouldn't, one of the goals of tarrifs is to encourage production in-country
The one product I needed tonight from this list doesn't like it is listed correctly. PC mustard is product of USA. I passed on it and bought French's because it at least uses Canadian mustard seed. And fuck Galen Weston anyway.
You would have a hard time finding mustard that doesn't use Canadian mustard seed...
Can we please not call Tim Hortons Canadian?
Nor is Robin Good and Four roses
Exactly. Restaurant Brands which owns Burger King, Tim Hortons and Popeyes is a US company. Tim Hortons is garbage anyway.
As an ashamed American, I really dig the solidarity and support you guys are showing with your alternative products and boycott lists!
Like Letterkenny says, if there's one thing you Yanks have sorted, it's your shopping. I will very much miss clothes shopping there because that really was a big savings.
Earth's Own is Canadian and makes pretty good oat milk.
I've already switched to them for a while since it's more affordable than other coffee creamers.
I like getting their almond milk packs from Costco.
Their Batista oat milk is great too, I legit prefer oat milk to dairy for most things, tastes better in coffee drinks imo.
100% Oat Milk lattes are no joke.
I just came back from groceries, and I went in with every intention to not by anything from the USA. Much to my surprise, I'd say 90% of what I usually buy are products grown and made in Canada! The rest were from Spain, India, etc.
A few were made in Canada using domestic and imported ingredients, so I'll be looking for all Canadian alternatives.
Orange juice was the only American product, and was a "one last time" purchase.
FYI, oats, most legumes and beans, and tomato products are nearly all Canadian.
Unico is a great Canadian brand for tinned beans, tomatoes, etc. I always buy it.
I know it's not a real option for many, but for those who can afford to I'd also recommend shopping local for groceries as much as possible. We need to stand together in the face of these tariffs, but I don't love the idea of Loblaws and co. standing to gain so much from the struggles of the public yet again.
Check out local grocery stores and smaller chains like Co-Op if they operate in your area for Canadian made goods. Look and see if there's a local farmers market you can buy staples like eggs and produce from. It's the little guys that are likely to face an existential threat from all this international non-diplomacy.
Absolutely! This is the year where I finally sign up for a CSA. (I'm not a good cook and have always been a bit intimidated but apparently most come with recipes and honestly, all the AI has made me a lot more confident in my ability to "find" a few recipes with whatever random ingredients.)
I am not as against AI as your typical lemmy user, but I think LLMs generating recipes might sometimes not work the best? Especially if you are limiting the ingredients. If your on-hand ingredients typically wouldn't be combined, it might hallucinate and spit out the recipe for some food crime creation. Maybe you've had a different experience though?
Have to make sure it’s a real farmers market though and not one that just buys bulk and resells calling them farm produce, often at a considerable markup.
I honestly believe this can be a net positive. Lots opportunities internationally. Plenty of natural resources .
These kinds of things bring people together. America doesn’t understand that.
Those are some grim coffee options. If your store carries jumping bean (mine does) they're from Newfoundland. There's some good rosters you can buy online like Detour. Of course if you're in a city like Vancouver Montreal or Toronto you have endless local rosters but even smaller towns will usually have one or two good ones.
Local roasters are the way if you ha e them.
I actually get mine only from a local coffee shop. I'd rather drink less and buy better local quality anyway. I have a subscription and they deliver once a month. It's nice!
Old Dutch is the best. I grew up on the rippled sour cream and onion. I never got the lays appeal..
old dutch was always what we had when i was a kid. mom wouldn't settle for anything less. it had to be old dutch chips in the box.
it is a minnesota company but their canadian operations is huge, with manufacturing facilities across the country.
Those chips brands are so much better than lays.
Edit: Isn't ms Vickies Canadian too?
Miss Vickies originated as a Canadian brand but was purchased by Frito Lay in the 90's.
I stopped buying Lay’s when they stopped being Hostess.
I wouldn't president's choice or any other loblaws either. unless rob loblaws month never ended the by all means go for it.
Bonus points if you buy any direct from Mexico foods.
Having refried bean enchiladas for dinner tonight with Costena beans and enchilada sauce actually. I usually go to the local Latino market a few times a month too.
Fantastic list! Where'd you find it?
For anyone scrolling, add Rustica to the frozen pizza list. Siwin for excellent dumplings. Cheemo for perogies. I've just found them in the past few months and they're all really well made.
I quite enjoy seeing "President's Choice" on this list.
Is it prescient, poignant or just apt?
à propos
Interesting… from that list, the only US thing I currently buy is French’s mustard.
However, I’m still trying to figure out how to boycott US produce — Washington apples and Florida oranges, and all the other stuff Loblaw’s stocks even though there are Canadian and International alternatives.
Maybe Loblaw’s (and the local markets) will start providing more local and South American options now….
