YOUR MISSION COMPLETED: WE REDLast week, we asked Gastroposters to feel the love of Valentine’s Day by enjoying all things red. From cinnamon hearts to strawberry tarts and cakes that were both short and cheesy, it would appear that

MISSION INSPIRATION

MISSION PERK

This week’s Taste Alberta inspiration comes from the chair of the Alberta Chicken

Producers, Erna Ference. Before, Ference remembers chicken wings sold for next to

nothing. Today “they’re very valuable, espe-cially with the increase of sporting events and number of ways you can serve them.” Ference says she’s a fan of spicy chicken wings, so Gastroposters, which chicken

wings take the podium for you?If you’re inspired to use local food to com-

plete your mission this week, let us know by also tagging #tasteab for an extra chance to

get in the paper!

We don’t know about you, but

watching Canada compete in Sochi

has fuelled our patriotic fervour. Your mission this

week is to eat something that

shows your pride in Canada and cheers on our athletes. Whether it be maple-leaf themed or a Canadian favourite, make it gold medal worthy.

NEXT MISSION: OM NOM THE PODIUM

Each week, Gastropost recognizes some of its members who made Alberta food a part of their experience. Complete this week’s mission (see right) and tag it with #tasteab, and you might see your

food in this space next week!
