Well, I bought the PC Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream last week for $1.97 Blowout and today got the Candy Cane Ice Cream tub for 97 cents. Haven't tried them yet.

They're in the "Big Freezer" (ie. my back deck ) , one of the things I like about winter extra freezer space!!!

A new pasta sauce at Costco, Mario Batali Cherry Tomato in a jar. Also said San Marzano tomatoes. Think it was 2 jars for $7.99. Bought some haven't tried yet.

And noticed some frozen European style individual desserts that looked good. Strawberry Cream Puffs, Napoleon Puff Pastry, some kind of eclair in the assortment. Around $12 -$13. Didn't buy yet, due to lack of freezer space.

Noticed Philadelphia brand "Cooking Creme" in a refrigerated bunker with the cream cheese. It to come in assorted savoury flavours like Italian Cheese & Herb and Savoury Garlic.

i had never noticed this product before.

New Kraft Habanero Heat Shredded Cheese.

Sounds like a great pizza topper!!

Has anybody spotted Lindt Raspberry Dark Chocolate Truffles anywhere yet?

There are tons of new PC black label products...I walked through a Fortinos today and was pretty amazed at how many damn products they'd been pumping out. Haven't tried any of them as I don't really buy jams and salad dressings or croutons or all that stuff (that was the only aisle I walked through, and there were tons of black label displays).

I go to costco all the time and they have new products but nothing I'd say is super interesting but might just be me.

Arahova souvlaki is now available at Costco (Arahova is a popular Greek fast food chain from Quebec)

Bought a pack today but haven't tried them yet. Have had them in Montreal a bunch of times though, should be great with some pita bread and tzatziki for a quick and easy lunch!

I've been hoping they have the souvlaki on sample to try before buying.

Please let us know how you like it.

I wish they'd bring back the pork dumplings. Can't remember the brand, they're in the deli section, same brand as the wontons and spring rolls they carry.

I want to say I saw them in Vancouver at their Queensborough Landing location in New Westminster. Just in case you may want to give the stores a call here's the store locator for Canadian locations: http://www.lindt.com/ca/swf/eng/informa ... e-locator/

Thanks. Good to know they've been spotted in Canada.

Two new to me products spotted today.

Dempsters is doing a soft corn tortilla. Finally, corn tortillas go mainstream!!

And Metro is stocking a British brand of "crisps" by Tyrrells. I tried the Cider Vinegar and Sea Salt variety, very, very good!! Extremely crispy, very good potato flavour and just the right amount of vinegar flavour. $3.49 a bag. I'm looking forward to trying other flavours.

I can't wait to try those 'crisps'. A couple unique flavours, especially "honey roast ham and cranberry", "ludlow sausage and mustard", ...I'm not sure they would be my first choice, but they have some that look great.

Costco, Kirkland Lavash Flatbread Chips, lightly seasoned with sesame, rosemary and olive oil.

Bought a bag to go with some hummus, but I am just eating the chips without anything, so good. Picked up a second bag on the weekend.

Also got some Bubba's southern BBQ, pulled pork... 6 individual servings, trying it out tonight.

Hope to find the worcester & Sun-dried tomato flavour at my local Metro.

not new but anybody tried those Food Should Be Good Brand Tortilla Chips from Costco, they are gluten free and deadly...note that they burn quicker in the oven when making nachos

Yup, that was one of the flavours I noticed in stock.

Yep, pretty good... we had too many of them and have not bought them in a while. They also have a sweet potato one that is really good too.

Twistos seem to be everywhere all of a sudden!!

Two new Strub's products spotted at Costco, Onion Crunch, big plastic jug of crunchy onion bits, think it was $6.49. Also, hot pepper rings with Jalapeno slices.

"pickled onion" is a popular flavor in the UK, tried some my buddy brought back before and they grow on you, especially over some lager! wonder if they have that flavor.

Cool, I haven't heard of the product. Does it say where it's from?



This is how Buster Rhino sells his products, I always liked having a few of those packets sitting around in the freezer but I ran out a long time ago.

How are these ones supposed to be heated? Dropped in a pot of boiling water for 2 minutes? (that's how BR's is prepared)

The sweet potato one looked to be on clearance when I saw them in GTA last week. Mayb stock up if its something you like
