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.

    Am I not allowed to choose to spend my own cash on higher priced import items if that’s what I choose to do?

      I’m a random person on the internet. I don’t make rules at all.

      I can say that that would be irrational, if there’s a similar quality item for less. Unless you actually just prefer the US to Canada, in which case I question your trustworthiness as a fellow citizen.

        Are you demanding nationalism?

            The highest form of being a patriot is dissent.

              Cool. I don’t know what you’re arguing for exactly. If you just want a fight with somebody about something, I have better things to do.

                If you’re not catching on to the point, then I’ll leave it that, no animosity.
