Well ,I was pleasantly surprised to find the isles brightly lit and the displays brimming with beautiful fresh Ontario produce. I started ,like most of us ,in the vegetable section. We all sort of weave a delusional right to left pattern as if stumbling through some giant pumpkin labyrinth in the middle of Farmer Cathy's field. We touch, squeeze and smell around the first few turns...meanwhile eyeing the cup cakes and stuffed bread rolls coming up in the distant rows. In our cart we toss some beets ,a bag of rotting carrots and wilted lettuce. None of which will reach the pits of our stomach but end up in a smelly landfill providing a delicious snack for some seagull trying to make it back to Nova Scotia. Ditoxin Methalhydrate and silica nitraxte sounds more like a grade 9 chemistry class then a pack of cupcakes..in the cart they go along with the clang of a frozen pizza that unsurprisingly contains the same ingredients as the cup cakes. I remove my shoes in the meat aisle, my feet were so sore from sitting at my desk all day. As I bent down to remove my shoe I slipped a delicious sirloin steak into my purse."This guy makes a killing...just look at the prices..who cares!" I thought as I adjusted my skirt and hair For who I don't know ,the store was empty except for some deadbeat late night teenager throwing her live away. My feet felt cold on the newly waxed floors "Maybe a slip and fall tonight, that may help$$.I pulled the pregnancy test off the shelf and laughed ,it'd been such a long time that I'd really connected with anyone.Threw it down the sleeve of my coat just in case. The ice cream looked so delicious, wish I could fit that in my purse.I set it in the top of my cart and wrenched on it hard enough to get a corner of the lid off.Slid one finger under the rim....ummmmmm choclate with salted caramel.. I licked my fingers clean like some old alley cat and headed for the checkout. Ordo

There are also nice flowers and plants up front and I like their wine area. Well, I always say I won't go back here as the workers can be crabby and the prices are beyond outrageous.. BEYOND! Yesterday, I stopped here just to get 1 litre of skim milk. $36 later... had to grab a steak on sale, cilantro, pasta sauce and yes, that darn bottle of lovely red wine. I'll tell you I'm staying out of there but that would be a lie. :) I live down the street and the parking lot is never busy when I go.

There are not a lot of places where you can get Southeast Asian groceries in Kanata, so this place…read moreis like the only game in town if you live in the far West End. If you're willing to go into town to go to Chinatown or go down by the airport to go to T&T you'll have more options, but in the West End where Kanata is, it's slim pickings. Granted some of the local mainstream grocery stores like Loblaws, Real Canadian Superstore, and even Walmart, carry some Asian products, but they are mostly the Asian products that have gone mainstream like black bean sauce and udon noodles. However, if you want some of the harder to find ingredients, you'll need to go to an Asian grocery store and this one will have you covered. Their selection is not vast, but will do in a pinch. Prices are not low but they are not outrageous either. Although higher than T&T and Kowloon Market. Also not everything has prices listed, so you have to ask. I saw a bag of beef jerky by the cash that looked interesting with no price on it, I asked and it was over $30. In all fairness, beef is pricey these days, and it was a big bag, but I'm wary of spending over $30 to try something out, like what if I don't like it? Lol. Right now (early 2022) there seems to be a shortage of rice noodles (like Pad Thai noodles) in mainstream grocery stores for some reason, but this store has an entire aisle full of rice noodles! They also have some items from Nguyen Huong, a Vietnamese shop in Toronto, like Banh Mi (Vietnamese sandwiches), and Banh Bao (steamed bread with meat filling). They also have lots of different types of Vietnamese sausages (Cha Lua) by the cash register. On my most recent I picked up a pack of rice noodles ($2.80), and a slice of Pandan and Taro jelly cake ($2.50). Even though the cake was wrapped in plastic wrap, I could smell the coconut milk and pandan. Yum yum. I'm much closer to Chinatown than Kanata, so I have no real reason to go here, but I check it out if I find myself in Kanata. It's in a strip mall with lots of free parking.

I missed going for a couple of weeks, and it gave me the winter BLAHs! LOL!! So, it's time to cheer up. This is not the biggest Farm Boy, but it's one of the older ones. I like that they sell things here that are not found elsewhere. And they offer a salad bar (presumably by weight), that looks intriguing, with wonderful large olives, and a variety of other fresh ingredients. I like their deli counter. You can get a sample items as you go along. I got slices of salami and wasn't sure which one to get, so I asked for a sample of that, and they gave it to me... Glad I asked too, because it was spicier than I would have liked! Farm Boy also makes their own versions of things, like a tasty, thick egg nog. There's a $1 surcharge for the bottle, which you get back when you return it empty. That's a nice touch! They also make house-brand salad dressings, and different oils which would make nice gifts. And generally every week I come back to see what flowers they have on display!! (Or that humongous pumpkin they are likely to have, leading up to Halloween. Watch for it!) So, I'll be back.

My significant other is especially good at steering me away from the back of the store so that I don't get caught buying another gadget! They don't always carry the same items; a few years ago, they had stoneware loaf pans at a really excellent price - about $7.00 each. I had bought one through the Pampered Chef (which I love and still use), but I would have bought another one here (at that price!) so that I could have made 2 loaves at once. The best way to shop here is to have a list and stick to it. Since the local newspapers are no longer being published, the flyers are not getting distributed like they used to either, so it's more difficult to know what's on sale there.
