No Aero Bars and no Kinder eggs. It's a sad existence. I grew up watching Canadian TV (NW WA carries all the Canadian TV) and always wondered what in God's name an Aero bar was like, what the heck Smarties were, and why there were no Shreddies at the grocery store. Then I actually went to Canada and found out for meself. Lots of things are the same though...except the ketchup tastes slightly different, as does the Coca-Cola--the use of sugar v. corn syrup makes a difference in the latter, I suppose. But I get up there once a year or so and purchase all of my favorite Canadian things and then come back to the States...someday I'll just stay there.
