Treats you can only buy in BC
 
Does anybody know if there are any treats that are exclusive only here in BC and nowhere else in Canada? Candies, chocolates or whatever that you can't buy anywhere else but in BC?

Fresh salmon candy?

evil_jigglypuff 11-07-2010 07:21 PM

Would you know where to get them? I just know of smoked not candied.

JHatta 11-07-2010 07:33 PM

It's called indian candy, and you can get it in steveston (richmond), but I forget where

it's like a sweet smoked salmon that's delicious, but not for everyone.

I see. Thanks guys. I'll try to see tomorrow where I can find them.

You can get also get smoked salmon candy at Granville Island in the market.

You can get that anywhere across Canada. Indians aren't only indigenous to BC guys. Maybe some forms of mushrooms?...........Or BC Bud lol

The use of the world "Indians" is so archaic, it left quite a repulsive taste in my mouth when I read it.

If you're contrasting to Saskatchewan or Manitoba, you can probably include any and all Chinese goodies you'd find in BC as well.

Not any more. I think at Granville Island, it's now called salmon candy or candied salmon. Calling someone an Indian is not racist, it's just that Indians are from the Indian sub-continent.

My friends family resides in Campbell river, they call it salmon candy there. There is a big amount of natives in CR.
