Re: [Serious] HBC to close most of remaining Zellers stores

For some reason I thought it was in Ridgeway and couldn't find it on their list of stores (as it was my intention to use that streetview rather than Welland) and gave up.

Ridgeway, Crystal Beach, whatever. It's all the same crap.

The IGA it replaced wasn't much more inspiring.

Actually, ask for the meat dept. manager there. And 9/10 times they'll be able to special order them in for you. Oddly, I get mine from the Foodland here. I usually get in 5-10 boxes at a time, good for about 4 months. I like the flat stakettes not the sliced jobs. Finding steak-ums in Alberta? No problem, finding them in Ontario? Almost impossible now. US? Oh yeah, everywhere.

Oddly enough seeing 'zero total carbs' on the package always makes me wonder what's in them. As it happens, according to their website, just beef. So the zero carbs is just a marketing ploy.

The only store I see that is 100% Canadian on their list is A&P. Foodland/IGA, Walmart, etc. have more presence in the United States, so finding them in Canada might be a problem. As Mashiki already mentioned, try the meat dept. in the store that used to sell them. Since Foodland is listed as a seller, it might be possible to have them ordered in.

I've sliced steak pretty thin on my food slicer, but not quite sure that thin for steak-ums (usually 1/8" to 3/16" for jerky).
