Day to Day Things Where US>Canada and Vice Versa

GTA Poker

Not talking about health care, the weather or the moronity of GDub...but trivial shit like this:

USA>Canada:

Trader Joe's and Sprouts are the nuts (grocery stores which are primarily West Coast methinks)

Whatchamacallit chocolate bars

Honey Nut Cornflakes

Donut Shops tend to be small places that still seem to bake fresh every day

Retail clothing stores have 10* more selection

I would say cost of living, but Cali kind of negates that

Canada>USA:

Donut shops tend to close (in Cali) by late afternoon (seen more as a coffee/breakfast thing, I assume)

Not many drive-through donut shops in USA

Swiss Chalet

Harvey's

Coffee Crisp

Abundance of high level College/University sports

Canada>USA
Ketchup potato chips

That is all.

Nope.

Brown Cow used to be our equivalent, but it hasn't been available here for like 10 years.

Ceasars are a waste of good Vodka . . . you, sir, are not allowed near my liquor until you repent.

You don't have to use the 'good' vodka, add a spicy Chinese pickled green bean and you've got one hell of a drink.

If I had a dog like Ace, you would not even be allowed on the driveway. Why would I buy "bad" Vodka?

Totally with Bill on this one.

A tasty pre dinner drink that american bloody mary's can't hold a candle to.

Let's be honest, being a cat lover, if you had a dog like Ace you wouldn't be allowed on the driveway after about one hour:D. Just use an 'average' vodka man, and diminish the polar thinking. Caesars are yummy, but can't be an all day long thing..

I've never understood the bloody mary. I've tried and tried to like them. I just can't.

Wife just reminded me that recently we had a 'horse radish' added Caesar version that I'd totally forgotten about. My god man, it was incredible. Again, in moderation. Pre food, incredible.
