As a Canadian, living in Rhode Island, I always ask for people to bring me a coffee crisp. Also, I've never seen ketchup chips in RI or OHenry although those are essentially Baby Ruth's.

I'm not sure where you are in Canada but just take your friend to bulk barn. My wife's head explodes everytime we go there when we visit. Nothing like it in the US.

If you’re interested, ocean state job lot has ketchup chips from time to time (along with a bunch of other weird flavors )

And Aldi has been semi-routinely getting dill pickle chips in

Thanks for the heads up! Personally, I'm not a big fan so I'm not exactly seeking them out.

Seconding Coffee Crisp! It’s my favorite and I can never find it down here. Also, a Rhode Islander will especially appreciate the coffee connection. (It’s kind of like coffee milk… but candy!!)

I don't know if they ALL have them, but the stop and shop on atwood ave in cranston has coffee crisps.

Also OP, I always ask for the st hubert gravy mix packets for when I try to make sad american poutine at home.

I refuse to believe him they've been this close to me this whole time.

My research reveals that the Canadian Oh Henry! is sold in the U.S. as Rally, though it's not very common. Oh Henry! is actually an American candy bar, but the Canadian version is now different.

I remember for about a week, for some odd reason, the Cumberland Farms on Killingly St. in Johnston had ketchup chips five or so years ago
