A price tag showing savings with the text : was 7.99, now 7.99 (Yes that is the same price )

Do I spot an incredible deal at #FoodBasics here?

Cauliflower advertised as Canadian. But the fine print on the wrapping says USA. Liars

Getting fed up with this scam.
I picked up the cauliflower, looked good. Price was good.
Sign said product of Canada.

The wrapping on the cauliflower said product of USA.

It is the corporations who are in charge of food prices, they really don't care if people go hungry -they care about their share price and shareholders -the wealthy among us. Stop #greedflation #foodprices are out of control. #Loblaws #Metro #Zehrs #FoodBasics #NoFrills #Superstore #Sobey

Wondering when Canadian grocers are going to stop stocking American produce. No one is buying it!!!. The fruit flies buzz around a full display of over ripe tomatos. The cauliflower looks good but it's American so its not selling. The romaine lettuce from US is all brown. Just stop. #foodbasics

CTV News, London Food Basics donate expired food to food banks instead of destroying it like Loblaws, THIS IS EXCELLENT NEWS, if I lived in London I would shop here

Is Quaker Oats Canadian? Do moose fish for salmon?

There's a big Canadian Maple leaf, so maybe it is Canadian.

But PepsiCo (the US based conglomerate) owns Quaker, so all the profits go south.

So it's not Canadian.

Why is #FoodBasics telling us it is?
Money, greed, and more money.

#BoycottUSA

How much is PepsiCo paying Food Basics to lie to Canadians?

Companies pay to be in weekly flyers, they pay to be on shelves. Food retailers make lots of money this way.

But does #FoodBasics have to mislead Canadians? Are they that desperate for money?

Pepsi is 100% USA #BoycottUSA

#ElbowsUp ❤️🇨🇦❤️

Bullshit!

Lay's is an American company, 100% owned by PepsiCo.

What part of that sounds Canadian?

#FoodBasics we are not stupid, we see our Canadian symbol being used by you to undermine our country.

You greedy bastards, knock it off!

Lay's is not Canadian.

Disappointed with #FoodBasics

The cherries are from the USA, and we are not buying USA anything. Price isn't the issue, being loyal to Canada is.

What makes this hurt so much? Food Basics was doing a better job than other food retailers. Showing 🍁 in their flyers and in the stores.

#BoycottUSA ❤️🇨🇦

B.C. grocer avoids selling U.S. produce for 117 days in what expert calls a 'real' boycott — Global News Sylvain Charlebois told Global News that what Urban Grocer is doing points to a broader movement against American products at the grocery store.

He flew in cauliflower from Holland.

‘we just took… a less margin, sell it at a regular price … to give the customer something they can buy until B.C. cauliflower was available.”

We can’t even get BC cherries here.

Do better #FoodBasics #Metro #YIG

#ElbowsUp

Thank you #FoodBasics for finding a Canadian source for romaine lettuce, #Notaro from Quebec. I had skipped romaine the last several weeks as no USA alternatives. That was my last fruit/veggie item to switch. And on sale for $1.88 ($3.10 off), so full prices is $1 less than USA.

Just found out 5,000 MOI #points at Food Basics = $50 😳

Who else stacking those #grocery #rewards like a pro? #🛒🔥

This is just a personal bugaboo, but I hate seeing seniors struggle with grocery reward cards. There are seniors who want the cards, but it is all digital now. A lot of seniors don't get QR codes. Companies need to stop making it so hard for the elderly! #DoBetter #FoodBasics #Metro

Just did our shop for the week and I must say over 90% of our goods are MADE/PRODUCED in Canada. And that’s pretty damn good if I do say so myself. Our American goods are: two Coke products, pringles, and pop tarts.

Shoutout to #Foodbasics for making it pretty easy to #ShopCanadian!

#FoodBasics does not have a viable customer compliant service page on their website, to avoid confrontation with the lowly customer.

Shoppers call out grocery chains for misleading ‘Made in Canada’ labels amid trade tensions - NOW Toronto Homegrown products are getting a spotlight in grocery stores across Canada amid trade wars, but shoppers are noticing errors in labelling.

If you’ve followed me, you know I often call out 🇨🇦 grocery chains for mislabeling 🇺🇸n products. This week, #FoodBasics in Ontario is labeling Coke and Pepsi as 🇨🇦ian. Because when I think of Coke, the first thing that comes to mind is "What a great Canadian product!" ❤️🇨🇦
#ShopSmart #ShopLocal
#FAFO

#FoodBasics was lousy with 🇺🇸n product, not moving, but to do my part used my Shop Canadian App and was a busy 🦫 turning the labels and flipping what would stand upside down. Btw the shady labeling was rampent. ❤️🇨🇦

#ShopSmart #ShopLocal #ProductofCanada #BuyCanadian #fafo

When you see Coke or Pepsi labelled as 🇨🇦ian, the first thing I think is "Ya, they are a strong historic examples of 🇨🇦ian product".

Do wayyyy better #FoodBasics, you're outright fabricating now. ❤️🇨🇦

BTW Simply Orange is Coke brand. Shop for Oasis

Canadians pay closer attention to food labels as mislabelling complaints rise As concerns over food labelling grow, more Canadians are scrutinizing packaging to verify whether products are genuinely made in the country.

Sneaky companies are so desperate to get their increasingly fuller warehouses to empty, many 🇨🇦n grocery chains are enabling, namely #FoodBasics owned by #MetroInc, and #NoFrills owned by #Loblaws. They show they don't care except, "Where's my Money!" ❤️🇨🇦
#ShopSmart #ShopLocal #ProductofCanada #fafo

Sneakiness in 🇨🇦n stores is escalating, especially with misrepresented products. It’s disappointing to see processed or packaged goods falsely labeled as Canadian just to push sales. #FoodBasics, part of the #Metro group, has been especially notorious for this lately. ❤️🇨🇦

I made a rage mistake #Loblaws not #FoodBasics, they Metro, I have been shamed, I stand corrected, this is why I want an edit button in Bluesky

The motive, move the product. #FoodBasics in Ontario 🇨🇦 sure seems to try, but their definition of "🇨🇦ian" is, well… flexible. A 🍁 slapped on mostly 🇺🇸 goods, with profits heading south. #Loblaws, ever the patriot, just not for this country. Heinz, Ritz, and Kraft not 🇨🇦n at all. ❤️🇨🇦

🇨🇦ian grocery chains are lying in flyers outright. This #FoodBasics ad (mainly in Ontario) misuses the 🍁 label. Kraft, Pepsi, Doritos & Frito-Lay are all 🇺🇸n. And that’s just one page, half their 🍁 labels are actually 🇺🇸n. "Processed/Produced in 🇨🇦" doesn't mean 🇨🇦ian product; it’s 🇺🇸n owned.
