Wow, Scotland?

They mention Winterlude, but I don't see a map for where along the Canal they are. Yes, I realize that would add 20 or so stores, but I'd still like to see them listed.

I saw one at the top of one of the runs at Blue Mountain a few weeks ago.

If you're in the mood to go skiing too, this might help. :)

Arrrrrrrrrrgh. The memories, those things are nasty. How do I know? Well, when I was younger I worked for them, they tried to open a beavertails in toronto in the beaches!!! The lady who ran the place was a lazy self admitted person

Anyhow, beaches is fine in the summer, lots of traffic. But in the winter, the beaches area dies and the novelty wore off for the beaches people. So, she ended up closing down. She still run the ontario place store and the Ex store. So, they tried beavertails in toronto is just didn't take.

I still remember the phrase: "it's a cracked wheat, whole wheat pastry that we hand stretch into the shape of a beavers tail", damn brainwashing, man I gotta visit my psychiatrist again.

Yeah, that's what I was saying above. There was one in the beaches, but it didn't make enough money during the winter and they had to close it.

Woops. I skimmed by and missed your long post (relative to other posts in this thread :) ).

Self-admitted?

And this mitigates your being a racist how, exactly?

Also, the stereotype *never* includes "lazy." I think you just threw that in.

They're really easy to make. I left Ottawa too, and after you make them, you'll never want to pay for them again.

Buy a $2 clump of dough from a grocery store. Take a piece out, roll really flat with a bottle or rolling pin. Semi deep-fry in a pan with 1/2 cm oil.

Squeeze a lemon, sprinkle sugar, and that's it.

The $2 clump of dough can make up to 20 beaver tails. Make sure you freeze the unused portion or it'll expand in the fridge!
