Eating locally grown produce is becoming more and more popular; a recent survey from Loyalty.com found that 61 per cent of Canadians believe buying local food is important and would pay up to 30 per cent more for it.
CTV News Vancouver conducted a taste test to see if consumers really can tell the difference between imported and local produce.
The informal taste test underscored the importance of not only buying locally, but buying at the appropriate time in the season.
