Mint nanaimo bars = mint flavoured custard instead of usual vanilla custard ... find mints ones often around Christmas.

Nutella originally from Italy I think.

"How do you like your coffee?"
"I like my coffee Crisp!"

My mom LOVED Coffee Crisp and would steal it from my batch of hallowe'en candy. but have to say that my eyes get so big when I see all kinds of candy at a Walmart in the US - Canada doesn't have as big of a selection.

 

[Sunshine]

American Smarties not real Smarties, agree!

Aero is Canadian? Not know this!

 

[Tousi]

What are Smarties?

 

[Frisky Feline]

Heh, that reminds me of the time some American tango friends from Boston came to stay with me for a while. The guy kept asking me where he can get real coffee. I took him to one of the many many cafes we have here where he could get anything from espresso allongé to cafe au lait, etc. He pulled a face and said, "no, I want REAL coffee." And I said, what do you mean by REAL coffee? He said, "you know, the kind you get at Dunkin' Donuts."

Oh, REAL coffee. Gotcha.

real coffee? that is so funnny! Dunkin donut is not real coffee for me. LOL just weak coffee.

 

[Sunshine]

What are Smarties?

Like plain M&Ms but way better.

 

[DeafCaroline]

OH! How could I have almost forgotten this!!

After Eights! How much more Canadian can you get than that?
