WHAT’S ON OUR RADAR FROM THE WORLD OF FOOD AND DRINK.

We’re getting a head start on Canada’s 150th birthday with a coast-to-coast round-up of local products and beloved Canadiana. There is a lot more to this country than hockey pucks and poutine!

Red is Best  To celebrate Canada’s sesquicentennial, Hudson’s Bay is waving the flag proudly for the eighth edition of the store’s iconic red mittens. The simple yet bold design features embroidered maple leaves, folded cuffs and a fleece lining. These toasty mitts are the perfect accessory for the Canadian pastime of winter grilling, and the vibrant colour will make them hard to misplace. As it has done since 2009, The Bay will donate a significant portion ($3.90) from each pair to the Canadian Olympic Foundation. $15, thebay.com
