Moose Tracks is a thing here, too. In fact, it's wildly popular.

It's a proprietary recipe invented by Denali Flavors, Inc., a Wisconsin company that makes, not ice cream, but flavour additives for the people who do make ice cream.

In Ontario, it's made by the Kawartha Dairy Company, in Bobcaygeon, Ontario, a village on the scrubby southern fringes of the bleak Canadian Shield. I've driven through there on the way from Petawawa to Parry Sound (and back), and I'm here to tell you that the dominant landscape features are rocks and trees, and rather a lot of little lakes. Whoever had the brilliant idea of making luxury ice cream up there deserves a knighthood; 40 years ago, the local economy depended on seasonal tourism and forest products.
