Without the Nutty Club in operation, I can’t really find anything made in Canada at all…

For chips we have Old Dutch and La Cochina and a few other good options. But I’m completely lost in the junk food aisle trying to find snacks for D&D.

Dare has fruity gummy candy made in Canada.

Edit: just saw the comment about Dare. Will look at them next time I’m at the store, I was pretty sure I read Made in Canada but will check again.

For chips

  • Hard Bite
  • Hickory Sticks
  • Hawkins Cheezies

Just checked and the larger 500g bags of Dare “juicee” candies (I saw gummy bears, jelly beans, gumdrops, and “gumm-ehs”) made in Canada (with domestic and imported ingredients).

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Old Dutch is from Minnesota. The major portion of their production is done in Canada, and most of their customers are here, but their corporate head office is in the US.

ARRRRRGH. I wonder if their financials are public - maybe their Canadian branch is independent? (Like A&W Canada…)

Dare cookies, Vachon pastries, Purdy’s chocolates, Covered Bridge chips, Chapman’s ice cream and popsicles, Cavendish fries.

You might also try looking for a local candy shop. Traditional candy is amazing! Stuff like toffee, fudge, peanut brittle, caramel popcorn, hand made chocolates, almond bark…

Only thing on that list at my local Co-op was the Chapman’s. And I agree that it is great!

Maynards is made in Canada. Not Canadian owned, but made in Canada. Fuzzy peaches are brilliant.

Kerr’s looks like it has a comparable product line to Nutty Club.

Kerr makes hard candy that is awesome. Lemon drops too.

My local Co-op website has them listed, if that helps.
*edit - Looked again and they’re all cough drops, though. Maybe a different store will have different options.

Their logo is familiar - I’m sure I’ve seen at least some of their products in stores…
