Field Roast Vegan Sausages (https://fieldroast.com/product-family/sausages/ https://fieldroast.com/product-family/sausages/) were temporarily banned a couple of years ago (http://fieldroast.com/blog/field-roast-coming-back-canada/ http://fieldroast.com/blog/field-roast-coming-back-canada/). I'm a vegetarian, not vegan, but I was pretty angry when they disappeared from our shelves. There was also some scuttlebutt that Field Roast was reported to the CFIA by a competitor. As a left leaning Canadian. But don't tell me what to eat. On the other hand, please keep poisonous or otherwise dangerous foods off of our grocery store shelves. It's a fine line to walk.

Completly off topic, but everybody should try the field roast apple sage sausages. They are absolutely amazing.

  The only meat alternative I can routinely get meat-eaters to not only try, but enjoy.

    I started to love "meat alternatives" the moment I stopped expecting them to taste like meat. I'm a thorough meat eater, but I also eat loads of Morningstar Farms Original Chik Patties because they fall in a pretty optimal place for me in the price/nutrition/convenience/taste coordinate system. They don't taste like chicken though.

  The Apple Sage are the only ones I don't like, but I'm definitely in the minority. The Chipolte ones are an acquired taste, but amazing on a hotdog bun with some mozza while camping.

I kind of get where the government is coming from with the regulation. The problem isn't you, the conscious food eater; the problem is the parent who buys their kids prepackaged lunch "snacks", who is none the wiser to what's in them. It's a stop-gap measure against "Bear Paw"ing (http://www.darefoods.com/ca_en/product/bear-paws-chocolate-chip/134 http://www.darefoods.com/ca_en/product/bear-paws-chocolate-c...) the hell out of children's lunches.
