Like most people in this country, I was swept up in a patriotic fervour the other day when shopping. It was Thursday B次元官网网址� seniors 10 per cent off, hooray B次元官网网址� and I was determined to seek out Canadian products. It turned out to be more difficult than I thought.
In the soup section, I looked around for a Canadian can but was faced with a wall of American soups with scarcely a local name to be seen. I was horrified, no Canadian products from anywhere. But, wait a moment, just about at ankle level there were a few cans of an unfamiliar name. Where from? The name was Sprague and it was from Bowmanville, Ont. Bingo!
I bought two cans, tomato and a Tuscan medley. IB次元官网网址檓 happy to record that both were excellent, especially the Tuscan. So folks, when shopping for soups donB次元官网网址檛 be vague, ask for Sprague. Your patriotic tongue will love you.
