Door to door trick-or-treating, indoor parties and haunted houses are among the riskiest Halloween activities when it comes to spreading the virus and we recommend you to avoid these altogether.
A safer alternative would be “one-way” trick-or-treating where individually wrapped goodie bags are lined up for kids/families to grab and go while continuing to social distance – such as at the end of your driveway or yard.
Eat Sum More has a huge selection of candies and chocolates to compliment your Hallowe’en night, whether that be via safe trick-or-treating as explained above or for you to hand out at your small, family gatherings with the people in your close social bubble.
Check out all of our Sweets & Chocolates here.
November 1st marks the beginning of moustache season!
Movember (as it is traditionally called) is the leading charity which is changing the face of men’s health on a global scale, focusing on men’s mental and physical health throughout the month of November.
The charity raises funds to deliver innovative, breakthrough research and support programs that enable men to live happier, healthier and longer lives.
The staff here at Eat Sum More is dedicated to keeping the men in our lives healthy, happy and strong! And for the men who want to be a little more adventurous with their taste buds, we have a line of South African Hot Sauces & Spices that will accentuate (and heat up!) any dish.
Try: Calisto’s Peri Peri Sauce (Hot and Extra Hot); Cartwright’s Curry Powder (Hot); Marina Braai Salt (Spicy); Miami Mango Atchar (Hot); Mrs. Balls Chutney (Chili Sauce); and our line of Rajah Curry Powders.
The first Sunday in November is when Daylight Saving Time ends and we’ll “fall back” one hour and return to Standard Time on Sunday, November 1st at 2:00am. Be sure to set your clocks back one hour before bed on Halloween night!
And with that extra hour that we gain, what better way than to spend it enjoying more of your favorite South African late night snacks?

On November 11th at 11:00am – we observe a moment of silence to honour the courage, valour and sacrifice of the heroes who have served – and continue to serve – the great countries of Canada & South Africa during times of war and conflict.
On behalf of Eat Sum More, we thank you for your service!
4 cups of water
1 tsp salt
1 cup of Iwisa Maize Meal
500 grams Boerewors – cut into 3 inch pieces
1 can of All Gold Tomato & Onion Sauce (410 grams)
DIRECTIONS:
Bring the water and salt to the boil.
Add the Mielie Meal and stir with a wooden spoon until thickened.
Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 30 minutes or until the pap is thick, stiff, and cooked through.
BBQ Boerewors: Place boerewors on grill on indirect heat. Do not pierce. Let brown on a slow heat and slowly cook. Once cooked, you can cut into serving sizes (3 inch pieces). Heat the Onion and Tomato Sauce and use it as a gravy for the pap.
Fried Boerewors: Cut up boerewors into 3 inch pieces. Put a bit of water in the base of a frying pan, about ¼ cup, depending on how big your pan is, and put boerewors in. Let come to a boil with boerewors in. Let cook on a slow heat, so that the boerewors can cook, and the skin does not burst. Once the boerewors is almost cooked and the water dissolved, add the onion and tomato sauce, and let simmer until cooked. You can add a bit of garlic to add flavour.
Eet and geniet. Mmmm, dit is so lekker!
Eat and enjoy. Mmmm, it’s so nice!

Dear Eat Sum More Customers,
It has been a hard decision, but I have decided to close Eat Sum More to walk-in customers, due to the increasing Covid-19 numbers and the fact that winter is approaching. I need to protect my staff, as well as you – our loyal customers.
We are a small store, and as such, can only allow one customer inside at a time. Therefore I do not feel comfortable with having people wait outside, especially in the upcoming winter months where the weather will be very cold.
However, we have our online store which is still operational and running smoothly – you can peruse and purchase all of our merchandise and products in the comfort of your own home or workplace.
To place your order online, please visit: https://eatsummore.com
We will do curbside pick-up or delivery. And of course, our friendly service is always the same!
Thank you for understanding.
As always,
Tanya and Team at Eat Sum More.

For months, as COVID-19 ravaged the plans and schedules of other sports leagues around the world, the NFL insisted it would be able to start its 2020 season on time. And it has!
Of course, there have been some adjustments to get used to – sporadic or no fans in the stands, less crowded sidelines, a handful of missing players who chose to opt-out of the new season, and most notably – social justice will be highlighted throughout the games.
But football is football and we are very happy it is back!
So why not stock up on some of your favorite South African snacks to eat while you enjoy your Sunday watching some football. We have our famous Biltong, Chili Bites, Dry Wors, Bakers Salticrax, Ouma Rusks and Bakers Cream Crackers. A fab family treat – Flings!
So, where did coffee come from and how did it become so popular?
According to legend, a sixth-century Ethiopian goatherd named Kaldi discovered his goats frolicking from one coffee shrub to another. He realized the coffee berries had a stimulating effect, and he began to experiment with the seeds. A century later, brewed coffee emerged in Arabia and the popularity of coffee grew at an exponential rate.
Here at Eat Sum More, we have a wide selection of South African coffees for your drinking pleasure – Koffiehuis Medium Roast Coffee, Frisco Original Coffee, Nestle Ricoffy. Not to forget our tea drinkers try our Rooibos Red Espresso.

2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder

DIRECTIONS: Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius. In a mixing bowl, whisk butter and sugar together. Add in eggs and whisk for about 2 minutes, until soft. Add baking powder and salt to the mixture.

Students all across Ontario will be heading back to school in the upcoming weeks ahead.
The government’s plan to reopen schools was approved by public health officials. This is a good thing according to pediatric specialists, who say that while the virus is dangerous, not going to school is dangerous, too – for education purposes as well as for children’s mental health.
Here is a great piece of advice from UNICEF:
“UNICEF is urging schools – whether open or helping students through remote learning – to provide students with holistic support. Schools should provide children with vital information on handwashing and other measures to protect themselves and their families; facilitate mental health support; and help to prevent stigma and discrimination by encouraging students to be kind to each other and avoid stereotypes when talking about the virus.”
Back to school means packing daily lunches for your kids once again! At Eat Sum More, we have a variety of delicious and nutritious snacks for your children’s lunch boxes:
Safari Kids Fruit Sticks
Peach and Apricot Rolls
Biltong
Dry Wors
All are very healthy and full of protein; have fewer calories than other snacks; great pick me up when your children need something to nibble on; stores well, and will not spoil in your child’s schoolbag or lunchbox; are all gluten free and chock full of vitamins.

Are you interested in making some Malva pudding? How about some Hertzoggie slices? Or some delicious Koeksisters? Or a nice traditional Peppermint Crisp?
A melting pot of the Dutch, British and African traditions, the baking culture of South Africa embraces flavorful cuisine in which traditional desserts play an important role. South Africans love it sweet – be it a veggie dish or a barbecue sauce on meat, let alone delicious pastries, cakes & pies.

Our story begins with my late oupa and ouma -George and Leah Slimowitz in Vanderbijlpark. They owned and operated a butchery called The Golden Highway Butchery – and people used to come from miles away to stock up on their meat for the month, and in particular the Biltong, Droewors and Boerewors.
Going to the slaughterhouse early in the morning with my oupa, watching him select his choice of meat for the store, unbeknownst to me at the time, would come in good standing in years to come. Back at the butchery my oupa used to mumble in Yiddish “It’s all in de spices” whilst making Biltong.
My late father, Louis Slimowitz had a number of butcheries in Klerksdorp and Stillfontein, and he also used to mutter, “It’s all in the spices”. Growing up in a farm environment in Ficksburg, I was always given the task of spicing the meats and I quickly became the mutterer of “It’s all in the spices”.
Now in our 3rd generation Slimowitz family grocery store, headed up by the family matriarch, our mother Rita, we still mutter, “It’s all in the spices”. We import all of our spices from South Africa and blend them in the store to produce the finest Biltong, Drywors, Chili Bites, Shavings and Boerewors, which people still travel for miles to acquire.
We encourage you to visit our online store where we offer no contact, curbside pick-ups and speedy home deliveries.
Whether the recipe includes a layer of grilled ripe bananas, heavy on the box spices or adding six tablespoons of sugar, CURRY in all its iterations is as close as South Africa comes to a national dish.
When you talk about the cuisine of South Africa, a culturally and ethnically diverse country with no less than 11 official languages, curry comes up in the first breath.
On South Africa’s palm tree-lined east coast, within the humid port city of Durban, a unique style of Indian cuisine has evolved over the course of 158 years. Locals say you can’t leave before you try one of their Durban curries: smoldering hot mutton curry studded with potato chunks called “gravy soakers”; fiery fish curry spiked with black tamarind and curry leaves; or bunny chow, a hollowed-out quarter-loaf of white bread filled with curry.
If you are looking to recreate some of these famous National dishes or any of your own delicious creations, here are some of the curry products that we carry in-store to help you achieve that goal:
