Pasta lovers left scraping their jars as Ragu pulls sauces from Canadian shelves
The brand apologized to pasta lovers for any inconvenience
Sorry, spaghetti lovers: Canada has lost Ragu pasta sauce.
The American purveyor of Italian-inspired flavour says it’s made the “hard decision” to pull its products from Canadian shelves.
Ragu grabbed attention after confirming on Twitter last week it had exited the country.
Numerous queries had been made by Canadians who were left scraping their jars while waiting for stores to restock their favourite beef or tomato sauce.
The brand apologized to pasta lovers for any inconvenience, and said it hoped they enjoyed the tastes while they lasted.
The brand’s owner, Mizkan America, did not return requests for comment about why or when Ragu was removed from the Canadian market.
Ragu is warning American customers on its website that finding its sauces may be a challenge and it’s working to keep up with demand.
