    When family lived in LA, anyone headed that direction had standing orders to bring Ketchup Chips and as many boxes of Tetley or Red Rose tea that you could.
    Another thing we do without thinking about it is we measure travel distance in time instead of miles or Kilometres. "How far to Swiss Chalet? Oh, about 10 minutes" (I'm told it drives Americans crazy, not enough information, but to us it's like an understood shorthand - ten minutes drive by car, allowing for traffic, and the fact far too many of us have a heavy foot on the peddle)

      Wait, Americans measure distance in distance? That's insane, how will you know if there is enough time to get there, or how early to leave? 15 minute drive means you leave 30 minutes before expected arrival, 10 miles means nothing to me because I don't know the traffic conditions, speed limits or how far a mile is!
      Like, if someone told me the closest Tim Hortons was 2 kilometres away but because it was towards downtown and traffic is always tight during that time, I would rather go to the one 4 kilometres away the opposite direction because it takes me half the time to get there because of less traffic. So closest being 5 minutes away instead of 20 minutes away helps me more! Because then I can time my trip in-between commercials during the big curling match.

    We've had bagged milk since the 70's. An Imperial gallon of milk in packaged three bags. When we officially switched to metric, some dairy producers tried to pull a fast one, and suddenly we were getting 3 liters (as if we wouldn't notice a liter and a half missing) . That didn't last long, because as polite as we are, some things are sacred. A bag of 3 is 4L.

    Being underdressed in winter really comes down to how windy it is. Without much wind as long as you're being physically active you can be comfortable in surprisingly low temps with parts of your body exposed. Throw in a significant wind-chill and the game changes. It's also just easier for a short stretch to be cold for a bit than to get all dressed just to go to the shops down the way for a bag of All Dressed (beats ketchup hands down for chip/crisp flavor) and to be boiling and stripping once you're back home.

    People seem to think ketchup potato chips sound like a strange flavor, but its pretty rare anybody who tries them doesn't actually like them.
    Milk in bags isn't that common in Western Canada. You can still get it, but most stores only carry milk in cartons. Unlike what was shown here there are special pitchers that hold the bags - you don't just cut the bag open and then put it in your fridge.
    And the weather/cold seems all relative to what you are used to: I've been in Las Vegas in the winter where its 12-13C (55F) out and you'll see the Canadian visitors walking up and down The Strip in t-shirt and shorts while the Vegas locals are wearing practically parkas and huge heavy winter coats. Around here 13-14C in the spring is a sign summer is coming and its time to get out and maybe go out to the park, take a walk or hit up the tennis courts and baseball diamonds.

    In Canada, the Province of Ontario has milk in both bags and sometimes cartons, but the price difference is insane! A regular 4 litre (roughly a gallon in value) milk in bags (3 bags = 4 Litres, if you can believe that one!) The bags are not just cheaper
    They are A LOT cheaper.
    $6.09 for 4 Litres in bags, but 4 Litres in cartons is between $8.09 and $9.99 for the EXACT same milk, and the carton is plastic, not glass.
    Glass milk by the litre is $5.99 @ Farm boy stores. Crazy high or what?
