What percentage of the cost of ice cream comes from US sources? Ice cream base is cream/milk egg and sugar. Chocolate doesn’t grow in the US, nor does vanilla. Maybe some nuts and fruits would come from the States. Anything else would be chemical stuff like artificial flavours, emulsifiers, stabilizers and preservatives. Packaging?
Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for what Chapman’s is doing but I wonder how much is symbolic and what it actually means to the price of a tub of ice cream.
See “loop, infinite”.
This IS the question.
Do we buy Heinz ketchup now, because they now produce almost all of it sold in Canada in Quebec now? There’s the additional factor that they were all too willing to screw over the people in Leamington back in 2014, but the question remains the same: Where’s the most good for Canadians?
Personally, I still buy French’s ketchup.
