    Are you sure Philadelphia cream cheese is Canadian? I googled search on ecosia for Philadelphia cream cheese and it seems to be an American brand owned by Kraft Heinz and Mondelez.

      I thought Kraft was Canadian. I used Philadelphia cream cheese the other day and the package said it was made in Canada. Maybe Kraft has branches in both countries?

      Edit: just looked it up and Kraft is American but also manufactures some things in Canada

        Made in Canada means that the last substantial transformation of the product was completed in Canada, but the ingredients can be from anywhere, so combining the parts of a pizza into a pizza means it can be called made in Canada.

        If you want true Canadian products it should say “product of Canada” on the label 🙂
