They also have a store, which I've been to, at 3101 Dundas St. W in the High Park area 0 416-769-5659. That's where I tried Ross chocolate for the first time. Yum!

I've been to the store on Dundas, and they have, unfortunately closed up shop...
Sad for me b/c I live in the West end.
They have a great selection of condiments and treats, gummy bears, Ross Chocolate, fudge, icecream... AND they aren't outrageously priced!
The Dundas store was closed because they're moving to Scarborough.
I stopped by there on the weekend, hoping to catch them before they moved and they'd already closed.The staff there told me they were moving to larger premises so they could carry more items. If we let them know we're low carbers they may begin to carry a few more products...
Nutrition House at Sherway mall has the largest selection of low-carb foods that I've seen in the GTA, but the prices are absolutely ridiculous.
I don't mind paying a fair markup, but they've gone over the top, charging anywhere from 20-100% more than other places I've seen the products they carry.
Maybe a bit of old fashioned competition will teach them a few business fundamentals.
I hate being a 'target market'...

No Frills also has Chapman's no sugar added fudgeicles, popsicles and ice cream. Still has some carbs (3.5-5, depending on product) I keep them for treats when I have room for the carbs in my day

I'm looking forward to the 4th. I like the vibe at Dibetic De-Lite!
