  • Here in Canada in Ontario, up until about five years ago, they used to sell panettone everywhere during Christmas … grocers used to stock them everywhere and about four or five different brands. Cheaper ones came in all plastic wrapping and more expensive ones came wrapped in plastic and contained in fancy decorative cardboard boxes. And back then, we had the choice of size and they were usually large sized.

    Now we have limited supplies and the displays for them are even hard to find. We only have one brand now ‘Massimo’ and they are more the smaller size. Every year now, all my Italian Canadian friends go on a frenzy looking for them … as soon as they come out, they disappear.

    Don’t know what happened to the supply but we don’t see much of them any more.











  • I was at an underground parking lot in the city in Toronto once. We got caught in a long lineup of cars because some idiot in a jacked up F150 with no sense of scale thought it was a good idea to park his enormous truck here.

    A bunch of us guys helped him out by hopping onto his bumper and weighing down the back end so that he could barely pass the height limit. I imagine he had the same problem on his way out.
