In a foodie inn on Vancouver Island, I once had nasturtium soup and barnacles. Delicious, or anyway, more delicious than you’d think.

[QUOTE=kushiel]  
Looking through that site, I’m amazed at the stuff we have that the States doesn’t. No Dad’s Cookies? No Wagon Wheels? No Juicy Fruit? No Chris & Larry’s Clodhoppers? No Corn Pops? No Hickory Sticks or Cheezies? No Vegetable Thins? No Cheez Whiz or Becel Margarine? No Shake & Bake or Bicks Pickles?

My entire childhood is weeping! I can’t imagine living without half the foods on that site.  
[/QUOTE]

A lot of the goods at that site are also available in the U.S. (however, some of them are put out by different companies). Go to any supermarket in the States and you’ll find Juicy Fruit, Corn Pops, Wagon Wheels, Vegetable Thins, Cheez Whiz, and Shake & Bake.

It’s found throughout New England as well, especially Vermont, where both good apples and even gooder cheddar cheese are in great abundance.  
[/QUOTE]

You can find it down through Pennsylvania and Ohio, too. Really, anywhere with good apples and local cheddar probably has this combo.
