THE RECORD

identity

The frozen take-home product is a separate offering. [2]

THE RECORD

history

IKEA Canada announced the restaurant introduction for March 1, 2021. The launch meal included broccoli among its sides; the later menu lists peas instead. [1] [2]

THE RECORD

nutrition

The table describes the plant balls alone, excluding potatoes, sauce, peas and lingonberries. The portal omits mashed-potato values, so a verified complete-plate total is unavailable. [2]

THE RECORD

prices

The March 2021 launch offer is historical. The later Canadian web listing gives no effective price date, leaving the intervening price history unresolved. [1] [2]

THE RECORD

distinctions

Plant balls and the complete meal have different dietary implications. The Canadian cream sauce lists milk and cream, so the plant-ball name does not make the entire plate vegan. The photograph is explicitly a U.S. example and does not establish Canadian portions or included extras. [2]
