Tree of Life Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies Review
About once a month I pick up homeopathic allergy medicine from Lifethyme Health Market on 6th avenue in Manhattan. The store sells all types of natural, vegan, vegetarian, grass fed meats and organic stuff. All that pure food though doesn’t mean they neglect junk food. You know about the impulse buy section at grocery stores […]
Bikaji Khatta Meetha Review (Officially Gluten Free Snack)
This package of Bikaji Khatta Meetha was purchased for $3.99 (400g/14.12 oz) at Foods on India (Sinha Trading Company) in Curry Hill. Already a fan of the previously written about aloo bhujia I was curious how their version of this sweet and sour treat compared to the one by Haldiram’s. The crunch is satisfying and […]
RW Garcia Thai Sweet & Spicy Tortilla Chips w/Flaxseed
My parents picked these chips up at Homegoods for $2.49. The serving size is 7 chips. They’re non-gmo and feature 500 mg of Omega 3s per serving. The package is clearly labeled gluten free. The RW Garcia Thai Sweet and Spicy Tortilla Chips are somewhere in the middle in terms of flavor and texture. They […]
Garden of Eatin’ Blue Corn Tortilla Chips Review (Hain Celestial Group)
These Garden of Eatin’ Blue Chip Corn Tortilla Chips (8.1 oz, $3.19) were a case of mistaken identity. The intention was to pick up GoE’s superior Sesame Blues instead. Luckily, the regular blue chips are also decent. They’re fairly no nonsense. The chips are organic and are only made of three ingredients: blue corn, oil […]
Rood Recipes: Indian Style Green Beans Recipe
Green Beans are a must have summer food for me. I love how they’re piled high at the farmer’s market stand. It’s a bit like playing jenga – you have to be careful which beans you choose so as not to cause a mess. They make a wonderful side. One of my favorite ways to […]
Sensible Portions Veggie Chips (Sea Salt)
I’m really enjoying the Sensible Portions Veggie Chips (7oz, $3.39). They have no cholesterol or trans fat and 30% less fat than potato chips. It very clearly labels portion size as 38 chips which is a satisfying amount. As with pretty much every type of veggie chip you won’t get much nutrition from these but […]
Cool Runnings in Bradley Beach NJ: Jamaican and Carribean Food Review
Cool Runnings is a a relatively new addition to Bradley Beach. They offer Jamaican and pan-Island food options. Located on 123 Main St (heehee) I’ve tried them a half dozen times so far and have mostly positive feedback. Many people say it’s easy to miss. It’s in the same plaza as the Country Farms convenience […]
Olympian Diets (Unorthodox Edition)
I previously posted about one Olympic athlete, Peter Vanderkaay’s diet. It sounded tasty but disappointingly normal. Since that post I came across some other diets which show quite a bit of variation. Venus Williams (USA) eats raw fruits and veggies as is entirely vegan. Part of the reason though is that she’s battling Sjogren’s Syndrome, […]
Primal Strips Vegan and Sometimes Gluten Free Jerky
I’m a sucker for beef jerky so a Vegan and V/GF version I had to try. I picked these up at the local convenience store though they sell it online in many places as well. Mesquite Lime Flavor: This flavor is vegan and made with seitan. Based on the ingredients mesquite wood isn’t used but […]
Wise Kettle Cooked Salt & Vinegar Potato Chips
The Wise Owl eye logo is among the coolest logos out there. I still don’t buy Wise chips often though because I rarely crave regular potato chips which Is my association for the brand. These though are Kettle Cooked and Salt & Vinegar which kicks up the potential for tastiness up substantially. As an added […]
