PC Organics in Canada

All you low carbers in Canada, isn't it good to see more and more products of President's Choice Organics that are at an reasonable price! I'm so glad our No Frills and Superstores are stocking the shelves of more and more organic foods these days.

I went grocery shopping today and bought....
Organic Coffee and Green Tea
Organic Free-Run Eggs
Organic Frozen Canadian Wild Blueberries
Organic Unsalted Fresh Churned Butter
Organic Peanut Butter - Crunchy
Organic Can Tomatoes
Organics Salad - Baby Romaine

I hope they get the Plain Yogurt in soon too.

Sharon

I hadn't been to one particular location of a the Atlantic Superstore in my area for a long while and happened to stop in there last month. To my utter suprise I discovered that they have an IMMENSE health food section in the middle of the store with all sorts of health food, gluten-free, low carb products etc. You name it, they have it. Who knew that most of what I previously thought were "hard to find" items that I hear others talking about on here on LC Friends can actually be found in my neck of the woods....lol. I was ecstatic. And what was only supposed to be a quick stop in the store ended up being almost a two hour long shopping session. I perused every, single isle of the whole section to see what they had. It was wonderful! But I"m weird like that and love grocery shopping anyway.

You too! I love grocery shopping too, thankfully its just me and DH, so I don't have to go down the scary junk food isles.

And its true, organic foods taste soooo much better!

PC Organics is da bomb!!!

I actually found their organic free range eggs for $1.99 here at Extra Foods one day! (regular $6.89)

They also sell organic butter (the same brand I paid more for at Organic Planet in Edmonton) AND organic baby formula, that is 1/2 the price of a can of regular (non organic), Omega 3 band name (any brand like Nestle or Similac) formula ($19 vs $32). I can add my own DHA and EPA for mere pennies.

And, not organic, but FYI the JOE brand clothes are designed by the same folks who design Old Navy and Banana Republic clothing. The ladies microfiber panties are the best and most comfortable panties I have ever owned.

LOVE PC (and do not mind doing the 35 minute drive to shop at no-frills.. the prices there are amazing) but the meat SUCKETH in my Extra Foods (I would not feed it to a stray cat, the coolers half the time are not working).

LOL I am weird too, but as for loving grocery shopping that is where we part ways.

Seriously, if you lived near me I would pay you to shop for me
