Walking down the aisles of one of “Canada’s” major groceries, it’s rare to see Indigenous food products. Even in smaller, independently-owned retailers, they are still few and far between. Fish might be from Alaska and seaweed from Japan, despite being plentiful on the coast of “British Columbia” and harvested by local First Nations. There are many “Canadian” products big and small, but Indigenous producers, as well as their local traditional foods, are rare. Where are the Indigenous goods?

Bannock mix?

It's literally flour, baking powder, and a bit of salt, oil, and water.

Why the hell would you need a mix for it?

It doesn't even need to use milk or eggs like pancakes, which is often why those have pre-mixes.

It's also a FN twist on a SCOTTISH food. It's a FN food only due to genocide and colonialism.

All foods come from somewhere, this is unnecessary offence at nothing.
