Next week, Sunday July 25, watch delis duel for dollars!

The battle for smoked meat supremacy in Toronto is heating up! Join The Stop for a fundraiser that will have chefs from Caplansky’s, Goldin’s and The Stockyards go head-to-head in a battle to produce the best smoked meat sandwich. Go, taste and vote for your favourite.

Admission is free. Food and drink available for purchase. All sandwiches $3; lemonade and iced tea $3; beer $5. All proceeds go to The Stop.

The Stop Community Food Centre strives to increase access to healthy food in a manner that maintains dignity, builds community and challenges inequality. They believe that healthy food is a basic human right and recognize that the ability to access healthy food is often related to multiple issues and not just a result of low income. Learn more.

As I’ve said here before, The Stop is close to my heart. I’ve been fortunate to not use their services, but I live one block from Wychwood Barns and community is important to me. I appreciate the work that The Stop does and support them when I can.

Because this is a duel, I want to see swords and chain mail. Maybe a cod-piece? (Er, maybe not – unless “cod piece” means “piece of cod”, and this isn’t a fish ‘n’chips duel.)
