Canadians can find entertaining inspiration in the new PC® Insiders Report™ summer edition

BRAMPTON, ON, May 19, 2022 /CNW/ - Historically, the May long weekend has been the unofficial start to summer in Canada. This year, to kick-off the season, President's Choice® is launching the PC® Insiders Report™, a well-loved playbook to help Canadians make the most out of their summer.

The new PC® Insiders Report™ summer edition, arriving in stores and online today, is packed with more than 100 new products, recipes and entertaining ideas, to help make every summer occasion just a little more delicious. At less than 80 days long, summers are fleeting and Canadians need to take every opportunity to indulge in outdoor dining experiences, try a new recipes on the grill, or have that second popsicle while cooling off by the water as the sun sets.

"It's time to fire up the BBQ, entertain outdoors and simply enjoy the season with good food," says Kathlyne Ross, Vice President of Product Development and Innovation at Loblaw Companies Limited. "We are on a mission to bring new innovation to your table – from plant-based options for the grill, to the latest restaurant-inspired cocktail, or a pizza oven at a great price - it's all arriving in our stores (and in the PC Insiders Report) for the summer."

Whether you're cooling off with a frosty treat from the freezer or expanding your family's taste buds with new flavour profiles, there is something for everyone in the PC® Insiders Report™ summer edition.

This year's top picks include:
