Betty Crocker In Canada

[HiDee]

I just moved to Canada and want to know if Betty Crocker gluten-free mixes are available here. I've looked in one store (the Superstore) and couldn't find them but they have other Betty Crocker stuff. Anyone have any idea? I'm in London, ON specifically, thanks for your help.

As far as I know, they are only available in the US at this time.

I've been keeping an eye for them...never seen them here in Canada...

They are not available in Canada yet. I emailed Betty Crocker a couple of months ago and they did not indicate they had any plans to bring their gluten-free products here although they said they would take note of my interest and pass it on. I suggest everyone who is interested in getting their products in Canada email them to let them know.

I currently get friends/family to buy their stuff when they go over the border.

Btw, I'm also in London, Ontario so I have a good knowledge of where to go for the good stuff around here. Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks everyone. I don't mind making stuff from scratch and would rather do that than pay $6 for a gluten-free package of cake or brownie mix, but it's nice to grab a box now and then for whatever special something that comes up last minute and I had preferred the Betty Crocker mixes to most of the gluten-free brands. However, I do have plenty of pretty good recipes that I'll use and try to remember a box or two the next time I go over the border.

Other things to consider buying when in the US:

CHEX cereals. All but Wheat Chex are now gluten-free and have been for more than a year. They are not sold in Canada.

Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce. The one sold in the US is gluten-free, and even says so on the label. In Canada, it is made under license by E.D.Smith, and the first ingredient is "Malt Vinegar from Barley." Not gluten-free!

I enjoy the Betty Crocker Gluten Free Brownie Mix and Chocolate Chip Cookie mix too. I've not been able to find it locally here, but usually buy it from www.allergyfreegrocerystore.com online. Does anyone know of store in Dallas that carry it? I typically pay $4.95 a box online and am wondering if I can get it cheaper locally. Thanks!
