Didn't buy anything american this week, at all, but I'm due to go grocery shopping.
I'm making a pot pie from some leftover beef and bacon fat that I turned into roux, I've got some potatoes that are getting old, some carrots, mushrooms... it should be tasty
Excellent grocery shopping today. We didn’t buy anything US (we think). The red cabbage didn’t have any country listed and we assumed it’s Mexican since the green ones were. We didn’t have to switch lots but for some products we bought alternatives: taco shells, granola bars, salsa. We also found some Canadian stuff sold out or almost: ketchup, cereal (we picked a different Canadian one). It’s fun to try new stuff! Also really excited about tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, lettuce and basil from Alberta! This is very early in the year for us to get local produce!
No Alberta bell peppers where I shopped, unfortunately. It's interesting that they're doing that in greenhouses as well. I went with Mexico, which is fine, they're cool, but the thing is you know it came in through the US.
I didn't buy any fresh tomatoes this time around, so I don't actually know what's available.
The other day I took my German car to the Asian market to pick up curry ingredients and enjoyed the night watching the Red Green show sooooooo.....pretty great honestly. 👍
I'm American, and not buying American has been the norm for decades. So far, it's working out pretty well.
