I sent Slim Fast a message to inquire about their low carb products in Canada. This is the reply I got...

Hi,
Thank you for writing!
These products are not available in Canada. Slim.Fast Canada is a part of Unilever's worldwide organization. However, each country markets products independently for their respective area. The Canadian marketplace is not large enough to support the wide variety of products available worldwide.
We are truly sorry to disappoint you and appreciate your interest in our products.
Your friends at Slim.Fast
What??? Not a large enough marketplace? Um, okay. Whatever. I replied with a polite thank you and pointed out that thankfully, many other companies have decided that Canada is indeed a marketplace worthy of their healthy low carb options, and that I would pass their message on.

That just seems like a load of bull to me. Some things make you want to stand up and scream "FOUL"

I'm not even sure why I'm so annoyed by this. It's not like I would follow the Slim Fast plan or anything. I'd probably try a shake or two.
I guess I'm most ticked at Canada not being deemed a worthy market for their product. Oh well. Piss on 'em! There's lots of other things to eat here. LOL
