City Stle & Living Food NEED IT WANT IT When Marie Claude Fournier and her sister began La Tomate, in 1999, a food boutique in Quebec, tomatoes were the basis of most of their products. By 2005 the sisters had 50 product offerings, all incorporating their favourite fruit tomatoes. Their newest innovation? Gouash. The technology for these jams in a metallic tube, help preserve the product longer than traditional glass jars. Avaliable in three flavours (Apple, Strawberry, and Blueberry); with three new flavours coming in January (Cherry, Raspberry and Pineapple), each fruit tube is made with organic cane juice, imparting a home-made delicate flavour. Gouash is perfect to pair with cheese, or even in yogurt. We smothered our toast with Gouash in the morning. The natural taste and fun, innovative packaging are sure to make Gouash a new classic. A portion of the proceeds benefit Le Club des petits dejeuners (breakfast Clubs of Canada) programs for at risk children. Available at London Drugs www.tomateonline.com JAM SESSION lesson FRENCH A stew, a vegetable ragout, or braised leg of lamb are comfort food during the long Canadian winter months. For eighty-two years, French manufacturer Le Creuset’s signature enameled cast iron cookware has provided energy efficient design, and conductive quality - sealing in all the juices and giving food a succulent taste. Once these pots get hot they stay hot, due to their classic, durable and attractive design. The cookware is family friendly going directly from stove top or oven to the table. Dig in! COURTESY (FROM TOP): LA TOMATE, LE CREUSET, DORSET CEREALS Available at The Bay www.lecreuset.com Simple, rustic packaging and hearty oats, fruits, nuts and seeds make Dorset Cereals a unique, eye-catching product on cereal aisles.

Not only are all the cereals certified by the Vegetarian Society and kosher, they are also just the thing to warm up on a bleak winter’s morning.
