Recommend a Canadian food gift for an American foodie
I have a friend in North Carolina who's a culinary aficionado. I'll be visiting him soon and was wondering what to bring him (besides Maple syrup and smoked salmon). Any suggestions of gourmet Canadiana?

If he's a true foodie then it's gotta be artisanal quebec or other regional cheese. There's also Ontario wine that has gotten very very good reviews compared to French or California product so that might be another option.
Make sure the maple syrup is the good stuff
not all canadian maple sryup is the same!

When I wasn't living in Canada, I liked the maple syrup fudge that you can buy in Niagara. Don't know if you can get it elsewhere ....

any type of European pasteries or food items. I have family down in NC and they say that they don't have any fancy European bakeries nearby.

Motts Clamato and make him a caesar.
Americans look at me like I have two heads when I try and order one.
Or just tell him to put some vinegar on his fries....I have received the same reaction when I have asked for vinegar in some greasy spoons down south.
If you want something a little nicer, how about some smoked maitoba goldeye?
