Skip to deliver Canadian snack favourites during Olympic Games
With the Paris 2024 Summer Olympic Games underway, Skip is giving Canadian users of its Skip Express Lane service fast delivery of iconic Canadian snacks to watch the games and celebrate Canada’s athletes.
In a survey conducted by Skip, Canada's most iconic treats and eats were put to the test to see which snack took the gold medal spot as voted by Canadians.
When partaking in snacking events of their own, more than half of Canadians (54%) like to enjoy a mix between both sweet and salty snacks.
But which snacks made the podium for most iconically Canadian, taking first place in the hearts of Canadians nationally? The battle for the top spot came down to ketchup chips taking home gold with 34% and maple cream cookies landing silver with 25%.
When it comes to cheering on iconic Canadians from home however:
- 20% of Canadians are most likely to reach for All-Dressed Chips
- 12% of Canadians reach for Ketchup Chips
- 6% reach for Coffee Crisps as their Canadian snack of choice
Honourable mentions go out to Smarties, Hickory Sticks, Maple Cream Cookies, and Crispy Crunch.
Starting on July 26, the opening day of the Olympic Games, Skip users can get Canadian snacks on Skip Express Lane with the exclusively curated Canadian Snack Pack for $25 featuring Maple Cream cookies, Hickory Sticks, Ketchup Chips, All-Dressed Chips, Smarties, Coffee Crisp and Crispy Crunch.
"As a Canadian brand - we're so excited to celebrate our homegrown talent and couldn't think of a better way to take in the games this summer than by pairing them with Canada's most iconic snacks, as chosen by Canadians," says Rachel MacAdam, vice-president of marketing at Skip. "As we cheer on Canadian athletes from home, Skip is thrilled to be enhancing the at-home viewing experience, delivering Canadian snacks and more to doorsteps across the country."
