For those who are not aware of it .. pop is actually soft drinks .. like cola. The Canadians don’t call them soft drinks .. they called them pop. Even my 4 yrs old.. calls it pop. The amount of fast food and pop that the people in this town eat, one sees an obese kid way too often. Our babysitter loves eating pizza and pop, i had told her that if she doesn’t eat healthy really soon, even the top diet pills wouldn’t be able to help her. The amount of fast food consumed here is terrifying, I myself have never eaten so much fast food in my entire life except now.

This is only a summer thing with Macdonalds, just like their lobster sandwich. Every summer.. the Macdonalds here do try to bring in something new for limited period. Many years ago, when the American dollars were great.. we get alot of Americans coming over just because of the lobster sandwich. I kid you not..!! This Vanilla Ice Coffee just started about a week ago. But you have to make sure you tell them to give you more ice.. because the first 2 times i bought it.. it wasn’t that cold.. and quite sweet. So with more ice.. it actually tasted good. In anticipation of a hot summer.. this $1.39 Vanilla Ice Coffee is a great thing.

Amused that the local liquor store carries a huge range of beers from all over the world.. i thought i would share boozing town with everyone. The man and I don’t drink beer at all.. but it is still fascinating to see. What kinda beer do you have in your country. The Canadian beer is very popular here.. so is the Molson i think and not forgetting the Alexander Keith Ale.

At 99 cents a packet here in Canada.. this must be the most expensive packet drink from home. And nope.. i can’t get it around this town.. but I managed to get this from the Asian Grocery store in the city. It must be like only 30cents back home.. how ironic hor. Albeit as sweet as a pop.. i still prefer this.

While sparkling ribena is common back home.. this was the first time after 7 yrs .. i was able to buy it in the city. I think it cost like $1.99 per can… and it tasted just as good.. but abit too sweet for a diabetic like me. But it was kinda cool..that i am able to get it.
