Back in the 1970s and 80s my mom used to visit a friend who inherited her family cottage in Nova Scotia on the Bay of Fundy. Every time Mom returned home to Pennsylvania, she would include a big box of Red River Cereal to share with my brother and me. It was so different from anything we had ever eaten that was labeled as hot cereal. We would eat it with a little brown sugar on top, or maple syrup to sweeten it, and pour in a splash or two of milk to make it creamy. It was always such a treat! We rationed that box until she would visit in Canada again, which wasn’t every summer. Mom has been gone for years now, but recalling that old memory recently, made me go on a search to see if it was still available. Lo and behold I found it still being made by Arva Mills and ordered it right away. Same great taste brought back many memories of mornings eating a hearty hot Canadian cereal around our breakfast table! Am so glad it’s still available thanks to Arva Flour Mills! Thank you folks at Arva!
