Hey all,
Been realising that when I do my grocery shopping, I don’t do a good enough job at getting snacks for the pantry. Decided to get a few things I know I enjoy, but I want to experiment with things I know that are made here a little more.
What are some solid snacks made here that you recommend, specifically ones without chocolate, as I am trying to avoid anything with chocolate for ethical reasons.
Thanks in advance.
Hardbite chips, Pickles, Vegan Ice cream (in Vancouver, Earnest Ice cream Vegan Peaches and Cream flavour for example to avoid both dairy and chocolate)
Caramel corn should be available from local suppliers.
Wish I could find more vegan ice cream. Chapman’s has a sugar-free lactose-free ice cream. Issue is that because it uses maltitol as the artificial sweetener, you basically end up with the same effect as if there was lactose if you have too much of it in one go. For context, maltitol is the same sweetener used in the infamous Haribo sugar-free gummy bears.
There was a brand I came across long time back that was oat-based and Canadian. Just can’t find them anywhere anymore since the Urban Fare out this way in 'berta was converted to a Save On and no longer carries it.
