I've been so busy and on the go today that this is the first time I've really sat down since 6:30 this morning! But I just wanted to pop in and let my Canadian friends know about a gift basket full of President's Choice products I recieved for review.

Now I've bought lots of President's Choice things before and have always liked their products, but I have never tried some of the more unusual things. So when I was asked if I would like this gift basket how could I say no? There was not a thing in there that I had tried before and they all sounded so good. I recieved the following:

PC Celebration Sparkling De-alcholized Wine, Blanc
PC Decadent Hot Chocolate
PC Peach and Mango Salsa
PC Memories of Fuiji 3 Mushroom Sauce
PC Lingonberry Sauce
PC Dark Chocolate Covered Caramels w/ Sea Salt
PC Black Olive & Fig Tepanade
PC Dark Chocolate Candy Cane Bark
PC Fruit Cake with Single Malt Whiskey


Now does that not make your mouth water? And may I say we've tried most of them and we were not disappointed. Everything was very good. Even the teenagers loved them. I was going to give the fruitcake to my Dad for Christmas but amazingly it disappeared very quickly when me and the kids went Christmas shopping one night. Hmmmm, who could have done that. I made the mushroom sauce with chicken tonight. Delicious. The peach and mango salsa is a really nice take on a regular salsa, which would be really good in chicken tacos or on chicken breasts, the Lingon berry sauce on top of a circle of brie cheese: yum! Everything was delish.

I will definitely be on the lookout for other products. I know I've seen some really interesting sauces from around the world by President's Choice that I've been wondering about so now I'm for sure going to give them a try! So if you're in Canada and can get to a store carrying this brand, be brave, give them a try.
