Thanks for the tip on the PC Chai. I've never tried it as I just automatically go to Tazo. I'll have to give it a try. We love broccoli too, but, have been eating broccolini a lot more lately. We sometimes take a trip to the US for a couple of days just to do a bit of shopping. We love finding groceries that we don't have in Canada. Also, Campbell's soup is no longer made in Canada. It is all made in the US. They do have a Marketing HQ and Distribution Centre here in Canada. The cans do say Campbells of Canada and they also say Designed in Canada. Hmm, does that mean the product or the labels or both? Interesting!
