    OK, I don't want anyone making special trips or anything, but I need me some Canadian sprinkles. They are the kind that look like this:

    and you can buy them in any grocery store. I think they are usually cake mate brand. I will seriously pay you for them and everything. I need a few jars of these bad boys.

    I know this sounds weird, but the Canadian and Mexican ones are way less waxy and yummier than anything in the US - and with all my dietary restrictions (no gluten, no dairy) they are one of the few things left that make desserts wonderful for me. I drove everywhere trying to find Mexican ones last time - until I found that Canadian ones are the same!! I know this is last minute - help!

    It's the thought that counts!

    Honestly - I don't need them. No one needs extra Red #Whatever in their diet...but they're just...so...good.

    Cake mate are ones I've gotten before, but I think any of them are good. Something in the US ones are banned in canada, so any sprinkles there are the good crunchy ones. I will check out buying them online. Didn't even think of Canadian Amazon :) Wait - does Amazon make a Canadian distinction like Ebay does?

    Hmmm...I don't see a distinction on the website...don't know if I'd get the right ones. I usually end up in Canada once every year or two and *clean* out a grocery store. Every time someone asks me if they're on sale. I usually reply "Nope, I'm American" and they are satisfied with the answer. :D

    I am leaving tomorrow morning and will be there until the 22nd. I may have a jar of these already in our cupboard. I will check when I get home from work today. If I do I'll let you know.

    Does the creamer need to be refrigerated? If not, I can head to stop and shop Sunday and try to find some!
