Over the years I’ve heard of food stuffs that are pretty much specific to Canada. Here’s the first batch:
Timbits
Popular donut holes you can get at the Canadian coffee chain Tim Horton’s. I don’t know how their donut holes differ from American ones, but I would never turn down a donut hole of ANY nationality. And I would like to try their coffee, too. I’m pretty easy to please when it comes to flavored coffees and pastries.
Halifax Donair
Created in the 1970s by a Greek immigrant. Cooked spiced beef, tomatoes and onion wrapped in a pita with a sweet and garlicky sauce made with condensed milk. Sounds good, except for the tomato and onion. Maybe if the beef was seasoned with onion salt. Wouldn’t mind trying it.
Coffee Crisp
A popular candy bar that seems to be like a melding of a KitKat and a wafer cookie. Covered in chocolate. What’s not to like? Of COURSE I would try one! There were other limited versions, such as orange, raspberry and maple that were later discontinued.
Montréal smoked meat
A Kosher deli meat that sounds like heaven! Brisket cured with salt and spiced, then smoked and steamed. Put some on buttered dark rye bread with just a touch of mustard, dill pickle and lettuce. Yum!
All dressed chips
Interesting idea. Combo flavors all in one: BBQ, sour cream, onion, ketchup, salt and vinegar. Was available in the US for a VERY limited time, then discontinued. I would def try these.

Random Thought
Taking the first bite of a burger determines where the front of it is.
