That's awesome!  Thanks for posting!  I am going there next weekend and want to take my time finding these things.  Were most of them at Walmart or Target?  Another question I have is about Sam's Club - is it like Costco in that you have to buy a membership and can Canadians become members?  I've never been there.

 

Thanks.

yes most of these were at target or walmart. there is also hugos

yes you can have a sams club membership.not sure if its worth it if you dont go down often.i go once a month or more.and we share membership with parents.

sams club is great its pretty much the same as costco.you can buy a day membership if you dont plan on going much

I would add monk fruit extract . It is approved in Canada but I haven't seen it here yet . I bought done this weekend and love it. I like the idea of switching up my artificial sweeteners somewhat

What is the name of the double protein bread you found and where did you find it? I have yet to find anything close to those nutritional stats. Thanks!

I don't know the brand that Sondra gets but I know that Myers drugs sells P28 bread which has 14 grams of protein in a slice and 130 calories.

I haven't tried it but a friend who is into body building uses it ...

Myers also sells a TON of gluten free foods and the walden farms  calorie free sauces and dressing and syrups ( which personally I find disgusting - basically water and chemicals to make it taste like what it is supposed to - just my opinion)  They also have protein powders and stuff like that.
