In this episode Sylvain and I talk about what at first I think to many Canadian seemed good news, but Sylvain thought was half-baked…a B+…$252 Million Dollars for Canadian Farmers…first of all, what is the issue with the odd numbers, but beyond that, isn’t that kind of money helpful? Next, we discuss recent consumer research from Dalhousie University and Angus Reid on grocery shopping, going to restaurants and all things food during the early days of the COVID-19 crisis. Pandemic Processing Plants - the Cargill plant was the worst COVID-19 outbreaks in North America - worse than sailing on a cruise ship - is there more to this story from a bigger picture perspective? Then we talk about smoking good cannabis, or its at least what we both though we were doing at first when we heard Sysco Foodservice was getting into the home grocery delivery business! Last but not least, the joy and simple pleasure of home gardening - a mega trend with no downside!
