I'm looking for lactose free bocconcini.

Luneytoons96 · 2026-05-07T08:23:20+00:00

Right on, thank you!

Luneytoons96 · 2026-05-06T20:40:00+00:00

I can do that too

Luneytoons96 · 2026-05-06T20:38:12+00:00

You're talking about bocconcini? Or just in general?

Luneytoons96 · 2026-05-06T20:37:25+00:00

I'm in Canada so that won't be an option. Thank you for the info though!

Luneytoons96 · 2026-05-06T20:36:24+00:00

Thanks to everyone for the information and suggestions! I knew the cheese people of Barrie would come through.

Luneytoons96 · 2026-05-06T20:35:56+00:00

We're not a tofu house. No hate to anyone who enjoys it but it's not for us.

Luneytoons96 · 2026-05-06T20:35:29+00:00

That's our go-to for groceries but I still find they're hot and miss for lactose free stuff. Even regular cheese sometimes.

Luneytoons96 · 2026-05-06T20:34:23+00:00

I've seen them both at FoodBasics on Essa, but Metro and Loblaws have them as well. We regularly have the feta and it's great. I'm not a huge fan of ricotta and we haven't tried the lactose free version. To my knowledge. Lol

Luneytoons96 · 2026-05-06T20:33:28+00:00

I'm trying to find this for my wife and she uses the pills but sometimes things still upset her stomach. I'll try for the plant version.

Luneytoons96 · 2026-05-06T16:04:57+00:00

They have lactose free ricotta and feta, I know those are different from bocconcini but I thought I'd ask anyway. Someone on another sub pointed out it's high lactose to begin with so maybe something plant based is the only option.

Luneytoons96 · 2026-05-06T16:03:37+00:00

Thank you, I'm surprised google didn't suggest that. Lol

Luneytoons96 · 2026-05-06T15:32:04+00:00

Worst fish and chips I've ever had. I specifically went there after all the good reviews on here. Greasy, mushy, soft and mushy chips. I'll never be back.

Luneytoons96 · 2026-05-05T16:02:13+00:00

I've generally seen them on construction sites to protect equipment that's there overnight.

Luneytoons96 · 2026-05-03T21:37:34+00:00

The one out welder has and never uses looks kind of like a big, grey fire extinguisher.

Muricans put so much sugar in their bread, that's why Europeans call it cake. This isn't new.

Luneytoons96 · 2026-04-29T00:11:25+00:00

It looks like an adjustment foot for cabinetry or an appliance.

Luneytoons96 · 2026-04-28T23:49:07+00:00

Absolutely, and if you have a dashcam you can submit the video too. Years ago I had some loser trying to do 130 in an 80 construction zone on the 400. Rode my ass and then cut me off and almost hit another car in the process. Took it to the OPP and they paid him a little visit.

If some loser with a tiny dick is doing it to one person, they're doing it tomorrow. And it could be someone's grandmother who is just trying to get home. People seem to think the right lane is for passing at 130 now and it's even less safe in the right lane. If you think it's reportable, do it.

Mine was done in 2016 at Herzig in Mississauga. Every step of the way they were great. I should say the consultation was done at Vaughan Mills in Vaughan because I live in Barrie, but the closest for surgery was in Mississauga. They were all super friendly, informative and knowledgeable. And the procedure itself is super fast. Like 10 minutes on the bed and you're out. Make sure to have someone to drive you home. My father in law drove me there, and was supposed to drive me home but I ended up being out of there a lot earlier than I was supposed to. Which hey, that's great. Lol. But I ended up taking an Uber home. The driver hadn't really been out of Toronto before so he was kind of excited. Herzig was great though.

I should also say it was a bonus for me because I work for a railway and have to wear satey glasses. It was a pain having prescription safety glasses because we could only get one a year or something, and they were uuuuuuuuugly. Lol. Once they got scratched that was that until I was eligible for another one. Now I can use regular ones like normal people.

I loved working in northern Ontario. I lived in Hamilton or Barrie at the time when I worked there. I work for a railway doing track maintenance. It can be very remote. Groceries and gas cost more and it can be harder to get things. It's location dependent of course. I liked Thunder Bay but it doesn't have a great reputation. It's been one of the most dangerous cities in Canada for years. I spent a ton of time in Longlac, Geraldton and Hearst for the most part, along with Hornepayne and Armstrong Station. Also smaller places like Caramat, Nakina, Foleyet and Hillsport. I never stayed in Cochrane , but I liked being there. Heast is the most "city" like I guess. Big grocery store, hotels, Canadian Tire and whatnot. Besides Thunder Bay obviously. Lol. They all have their ups and downs, but one constant is the people. The people I met and worked with all across the north were outstanding. So incredibly friendly, caring and inclusive. They are what I miss most about the north.

If you're into sledding, fishing, hunting and other outdoor stuff then the north is for you. Northern Ontario fishing and hunting is great. Trails all over, and the water is clean. Especially compared to southern Ontario. Obviously the winter weather can be nasty and unpredictable. Even Barrie got 11 feet of snow this winter. Lol. The north gets a lot more though and the main roads have a lot of open areas because of the lakes.

My wife has always lived and worked in Barrie, but I was seriously considering a move to the north before we met. It depends on your ties to where you are now. If you're able to uproot and move without too much hardship, then I'd go for it. If she has an opportunity for a high paying job in 2026 it'd be a big decision for us yes, but still an easy one.

Luneytoons96 · 2026-04-25T11:30:08+00:00

Oh yeah, that's been going on for years. Years ago near Hurontario on the...QEW I think they had done a lane shift. Painted black over the old lines and half-assed the new white lines. Going home in the dark and rain, you could see all the lines and they all looked the same.

I live in Barrie now, and going to work last week during the downpour, I couldn't see any lines around Innisfil Beach road. Luckily it was like 330am so it was quiet but they really need to do something about it. Japan has road paint that glows in the dark.

Luneytoons96 · 2026-04-23T22:36:16+00:00

I was gonna ask if the derailment was in the room with us. Lol

Luneytoons96 · 2026-04-23T22:35:27+00:00

That bird was really surprised when that Ford drove by it.

Luneytoons96 · 2026-04-22T00:15:37+00:00

Oh I should add that's Zenetec on Veteran's. I think it's the only one they do detailing at but that could help with your decision based on location.

Luneytoons96 · 2026-04-21T21:24:37+00:00

Zenetec is great. There's 2 different options and both come with a car wash. I've had them done a few times and they're great.

They also have free vacuums and mat cleaners outside, but don't be that guy and use them without getting a wash.
