Good morning! BIG changes are happening here at Pepper's and the first thing you'll notice is that we've added an extra cashier till! We know how frustrating it can be when we're very busy and you only have a few items but you have to wait while someone else makes a ginormous purchase. So when we get busy, this additional till will be used as an express lane to help remedy this inconvenience. And, just so you know, Apple Pay is already available so that'll make contactless payment an even quicker and easier option for those who wish you pay this way!
You may have already noticed an official NHL Toronto Maple Leafs jersey hanging in all its glory at the front of the store. For every one of you who dispise this team (and there are many), there are five who live and breathe blue and white (including this writer)! Believe me, we've all gotten pretty used to saying "Oh well, there's always next year." So if you are one of the latter, you're going to want to try and win it. But don't forget, you still have time to enter for a chance to win a jersey from another Toronto team, the Blue Jays! Simply sign the back of your receipt and include your phone number and deposit it in the drawbox at the front of the store!
This week we have some more exciting, new items to reveal so let's get down to business!
If you're in the market for some dairy free, egg free, gluten free snacks then Energy Bombs (of Kelowna, BC) are really going to rev your engine! Available in Date Almond, Apricot Pecan and Cranberry Chocolate, these raw, all natural and hand crafted are, "An exceptional combination of dried fruit, nuts and oats that form a powerful bite." Each pack contains two nutrient dense "bombs" for easy and convenient snacking on-the-go! Make sure you try these; they're da bomb!

Another new awesome snack is customer requested Good Health Apple Chips made with 100% red apples! Cooked to a golden crisp and sprinkled with yummy cinnamon, they make a perfect snack for anytime and for anyone! Enjoy being good!
Quite awile ago we brought in Table Talk Pies, those mini pies that sell like hotcakes and come in Apple, Cherry, Pumpkin and Blueberry. Now there's even more deliciousness to choose from because we've added Lemon and Chocolate Eclair! If you're in the mood for pie but the idea of buying an entire regular sized one is a problem (because you know you'll eat the entire thing!) then one or two of these little guys is the solution!
While we're talking about baked goods, we should let you know that our Deli Dept has replaced a common baking ingredient, the Callebaut Chocolate Blocks (the random weight chunks of chocolate) for the more convenient Callebaut Milk Chocolate Callets (and soon to be added Dark Chocolate Callets). These milk chocolate chips are perfect for chocolate fountains, cakes, desserts, baking, decoration, chocolate fondues, making chocolates, enrobing and mould making. Look for them above the bulk baked goods section.
A few weeks ago we mentioned how Coca Cola had added some new flavours. This time, we've added another variety of Coke whose flavour is the same but with one change to the second main ingredient. Made in Mexico Coca Cola is made with cane sugar (as opposed to the domestic version which uses sucrose or high fructose corn syrup). It's a somewhat less refined sugar than white sugar. So if that makes a difference to you then give this new old Coke a try! Deliciosos y refrescante! Hecho en Mexico.
It seems that whats old somehow always becomes new again. That's the case with Coke's largest competitor, Pepsi Cola and their re-released retro favourite Crystal Pepsi originally introduced in Canada and the US in 1992! Same old Pepsi minus the caramel colouring! So throw on some Nirvana, fire up the Sega Genesis and chill out with this limited edition clear cola!
Consumers who prefer to eat grain and gluten free foods will be thrilled to know that Pepper's now carries The Real Coconut Coconut Flour Tortillas. Birthed on the beaches of Tulum, Mexico these tortillas are made with organic ingredients and are safe for vegans and those on a paleo diet! And each tortilla is only about 40 calories!
From Mexico we'll move to Maui, specificall Maui Moisture Shampoo and Conditioner. Available with Bamboo Fibre and Coconut Milk respectively, the number one ingredient in each is 100% aloe juice! There's no mineral oils, silicone, parabens, synthetic dyes or anything else that you don't want in there. Just great smelling, eco-friendly hair care products! Take a vacation in the shower with these amazing shampoos and conditioners!
That's all there is for this week. Next week's newsletter will come at the beginning of a new month! Where does the time go? Until then, take good care.
