We often lament the loss of bubble gum and sports cards. But what about cereal, Twinkees, hamburgers and fries?

Once upon a time, collectors were enticed to indulge in foods we might not normally eat or hit the drive thru a couple of times a week all in the name of sports cards. For decades, premiums and food issues were a regular thing, even if they didn�t stick with a particular brand for long.

But over the last 15 to 20 years, these sorts of sets have largely disappeared. You see the occasional blip on the radar but few that are major.

Until now.

Tim Hortons hockey cards are a big deal � even if you don�t live in Canada. Even if you don�t collect hockey cards.

Here�s why.
