As a USian I’ve heard many stereotypes about Canadians over the years. Super friendly has always been the most prevalent, and the runner up usually involved moose or mounties. When I lived right up at the border for a few years I discovered the two weirdest possible Canadian stereotypes.

The first was that Canadians would drive down to my mattress store, buy a Tempurpedic pillow, then return it a month later. Like. Any time we sold just a pillow it was a Canadian and 90% were returned a month later. I cannot and will never be able to explain this phenomenon.

But the second weird Canadian thing was The Milk. My roommates and I would shop at Costco and if we had the misfortune to go on a weekend we would just see Costco sized shopping carts full of milk. And Costco doesn’t have regular gallons! They have those massive two gallon jugs.

We’d see carts entirely filled with jugs of milk and every person loading up a pallet of milk into their car had Canadian plates. Even mild Canadians would have at least three of those milk jugs.

It was a subject for wild speculation. Did they bathe in the milk? Was one Canadian volunteered as tribute to bring back milk to their whole city block? Did they not have cows in Canada? Was there a Canadian black market for shitty US milk?

The local Costco had to literally expand their fridge section to accommodate the milk runs that would happen. It was super weird. But now I just sound like a crazy person when I make a Canadian milk joke because only people in that city knew about this hyper specific trend.

It has milk, but the ingredients label left it out. Butter is made from milk and it would say Non-Dairy on the label where it would be clearly written. Isn't non-dairy butter called "spread" or margarine? Cheese made with oil is called "cheese food." I don't need people yelling at me. Butter is dairy. I have deleted your nasty comments.

I’m cleaning my phone and found this gem, my beloved reading an email they got from Costco.

Costco workers in Norfolk, Va. have voted to join the Teamsters Local 822, with the union calling this its first organizing victory at the wholesale retailer in two decades. The 238-worker group will join more than 18,000 Teamsters at Costco nationwide. Successful unionization efforts in the retail industry have been relatively rare, but they may pick up steam this year following a strong year for labor in 2023, with successful strikes by the United Auto Workers against the Big Three carmakers and by SAG-AFTRA and the Writers Guild of America against Hollywood studios.
