JJ Beans is the actual BC distributor for the DaVinci Gourmet line, they have a LOT of the flavours in their shops, in and around Vancouver.

Check out Health Food stores and grocery stores, too, these days, for Liquid Stevia; this is about the only concentrated sweetener you will find in Canada in retail stores at this time, except for the Liquid Sugar Twin (most grocery stores). I find a blend of the two works really really well, and is zero carb. That Natural Living Health is sure to carry some.

The smaller Atkins bars are really Atkins candy, not protein bars, so be wary. The maltitol might get you and you will be very uncomfortable and in the bathroom.

The wraps and other such products are much harder to get these days, definitely and at least in part because of the labelling laws that have gone into full force in Canada for every company as of last December. It's one of the reasons I had to stop carrying the tortillas, along with nobody much expecting a low carb site in Western Canada and so not searching far enough along with the certainty that they can only be kept in stock, even in a freezer, for so long.

It's good to start a thread like this, but to keep it current, it needs to be posted to regularly, or all the information (just like all the other product/location specific search threads over the years) will just disappear off the bottom of the current "page".

Enjoy!
