    Just went grocery shopping. It was actually easier to figure out what was made in the US than I expected. Pretty much everything was labeled with the origin and where they were imported from (if they were imported).

    The other thing I learned is that the US cornered the junk food market lmao.

    Also I did buy one item from the US which was broccoli. If someone finds broccoli not from the US let me know :D

          Then I don’t know what you expect. You can’t grow broccoli in Canada in the winter and you can’t ship fresh vegetables over from halfway around the world and expect them to stay fresh.

            I don’t think it’s crazy to expect some to come from Mexico. According to 10 minutes of Googling, Mexico produces a lot of broccoli and we get a lot of produce from Mexico already.

            From my most recent grocery trip, the lettuce and limes I bought were all from mexico.
