Flake Bar A British export company has organized a deal with Hershey's to make the beloved Flake bar a thing of the past in the United States. Photo credit: Cadbury

Ketchup chips Orange fingertips from cheese puffs and Doritos is one thing; now, red fingers from a bag of sometimes sweet but mostly salty chips is a whole different — and yummy — kind of special. Lays Canada

Toffee Crisp The deal struck with Hershey's in the United States to ban British confectioneries doesn't just impact Cadbury. In fact, it impacts all British chocolates. Because Toffee Crisp resembles the packaging of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, it's considered bad for business. Photo credit: Nestle

BeaverTails The fried dough treat was actually born in Hungary but calling it a "BeaverTail" and throwing all kinds of toppings (chocolate, fruit, cinnamon sugar, etc.) on it was a stroke of Canadian marketing genius. Getty Images

Crush cream soda You just need that sweet, tart, fizzy goodness from the pink can or bottle? Only in Canada, people. Only in Canada. Flickr

Game meat Bison, venison, boar and caribou can be found at most Canadian butchers, restaurants and homes. Come on, not everything tastes like chicken. Thinkstock

Bannock The tradional Scottish flat bread was adopted by North American Natives, including Canada's Inuit, and has since been given a gourmet treatment in culinary circles. Thinkstock

Maltesers Another reason to love Canada? We haven't imposed a British import ban like the States, so we can still get Maltesers. Photo credit: Mars, Incorporated

Nanaimo bars The best part of these treats that originated in Naniamo, B.C.? No baking required. All you need is butter, sugar, vanilla, an egg, coconut, graham cracker crumbs, walnuts, chocolate, cocoa, milk, icing sugar and vanilla custard. OK, it sounds like a lot of work but, really, it's quite easy. Thinkstock

Yorkie The United States doesn't like the competition this poses to the beloved York Peppermint Patty. But in Canada, you can choose either. Photo credit: Nestle

Montreal bagels New York might think they own the bagel market but Montreal's version tends to be sweeter and smaller — a good thing if you're counting your calories as a bagel is equivalent to three or four slices of bread. Thinkstock

Kraft Dinner Americans might call it mac and cheese, but Canadians do it better. Pasta topped with milk, butter and the signature orange cheese powder (though the white cheddar version is just as good) is sometimes just what the lazy doctor ordered. Kraft Canada

Swiss Chalet dipping sauce The restaurant chain's rotisserie chicken and fries are delicious in their own right but without the dipping sauce, you may as well have an empty plate in front of you. You can also buy the packets in grocery stores — but it's just not the same as getting the piping hot thick gravy in those little cups. Swiss Chalet

Montreal smoked meat Kosher-style smoked beef brisket with special herbs and spices? Yes, please. Throw that on a Montreal bagel and that's about as Canadian as you can get. French-Canadian, that is. Thinkstock

Kraft peanut butter We might not have Jif but Kraft's PB is arguably the best on the market. Kraft Canada

Donairs If you like your snacks sweet, meaty and greasy, than the East Coast wrap/sandwich is for you. Heavily spiced ground meat that's shaved off a spit, seared on a flattop, and placed in a pita with tomatoes and onions. But it's the signature sauce that'll have you begging for more. Slurp. Getty

Coffee Crisp It's a nice light snack, so nice and light that you don't feel guilty for scarfing down an entire bar of milk chocolate and crunchy wafer with the mocha flavour. Nestlé Canada

Split pea soup The thick concoction of dried yellow split peas and a smoked ham hock is all thanks to the Québécois. De rien. Thinkstock

Cadbury Dairy Milk Hershey's even views the humble milk chocolate bar as competition, so it is out as well. But, breaking things down, a British chocolate bar's main ingredient is milk, while an American chocolate bar's main ingredient is sugar. Huh. Photo credit: Cadbury

Canada Dry ginger ale You can get ginger ale anywhere, we suppose, but the tastiest brand comes from Canada Dry. Of course. Canada Dry

Tourtière The savoury meat pie from Quebec is made with ground pork, veal or beef. French-Canadians usually bust out the delicacy around the holidays but it's a homey dish that is perfect for those days when you just need a little comfort food. Thinkstock

Jos Louis The snack cakes are covered in chocolate, stuffed with white icing and can't be gobbled up anywhere but here. A shame. (Not really.) Vachon

Hickory Sticks You might not have enjoyed a bag of the best "simulated potato sticks" in a while, but that smoky flavour is incomparable. Frito Lay Canada

Smarties The colourful chocolates are one of the most popular candies around, seen most often in and around Halloween. But, Canadians, if you happen to be in the States and have a hankering for the treats, it should be noted that American Smarties are totally different than our take on it. There they’re what we call Rockets, coincidentally also a Halloween staple. Nestlé Canada

Butter tarts What's not to love? Butter, sugar, syrup, eggs and even more butter in a pastry shell. Enjoy one with raisins, nuts or nothing at all; these sweet treats should be a staple in anyone's house, any time. Thinkstock
