Buying Canadian (and not American)
#3
Further investigation has led us to conclude that very few nuts (or peanuts) are grown in Canada. So, we'll be checking out a few different nut butters (we already have been eating a blended nut and seed butter): both Nuts to You and Healthy Crunch are made in Canada from Canadian seeds.

Yes, dairy is easy if you prefer milk products. We'll be trying out either Enjoy! or Canada Oat: both are Canadian-made from Canadian oats.

Meat products appear to be somewhat challenging as there is often no country-of-origin labeling. Buying from an actual butcher may make it easier to confirm the provenance of the products. (We don't eat meat so not an issue for us personally.)

Nut and raisin investigation to follow ...
