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.
I was already bracing myself to be careful at the grocery store a while back cause I’d been following the story of the US rolling back food and product regulations. It can’t be fun to be doing any Kitchen/ Restaurant work right now. Last time I out I managed to find all Canadian stuff. Lettuce was the hardest, self contained was all from California. I did find a Canadian made salad kit I stripped for parts, I wish the quality was better but it was okay. I’m not a real power user of lettuce anyway. It’s just going to take a bit of adapting.
I also typically buy used name brand clothing and plan to keep going with that and with entertainment I usually use the free services, used stores and thrifts and a bit of yarr matey on the side.
What brand?
Taylor Farms.
Unfortunately, they’re all made in the US where I live, based on the bags I read.
This is definitely not an exclusively Canadian company. I was looking the other day at salad kits and all the Taylor Farms bags I looked at were American. There is a Canadian subsidiary so its possible to find Canadian products but just be cautious!
