When Maple Leaf Foods changed its hot dog recipe in 2010, Atlantic Canadians got upset, calling for a return to the original taste. Maple Leaf heard the feedback loud and clear, and has now launched Larsen “Classic Taste” Wieners in Atlantic Canada. Not content with simply sending out a press release, Maple Leaf has unveiled an entire news network focused on the summer BBQ treat, developed by St John’s-based Target Marketing & Communications. It’s all wiener news, all the time.
