In a search for a quintessentially Canadian design my own kitchen cupboards seemed like an obvious place to start looking. It seems that it is most often food (and grocery stores) that I come to identify with a place. Robin Hood Flour in that distinct yellow packaging stood out immediately because of its constant presence in all the kitchen cupboards of my life. Robin Hood is one of those distinctly Canadian brands (is there even any other brand of flour in Canada?): There is likely a bag in the kitchen of every Canadian household. – Alex Henderson
