Yummy Food Finds

I have made a few yummy food finds in the past few days, and I just thought I would pass on the news!

Whole Foods Mock Chicken Salad and Mock BBQ Chicken
Both dishes are served in the Whole Foods prepared foods section. I must admit that the consistency and taste of these dishes is close enough to chicken that I nearly get grossed out. After a couple years of no meat, you don't always desire meat tasting products as much. So, when you find something that is as close to the "real thing" you can get it, it's almost a bit disturbing. So, although I find this product tasty, I start getting a tad queasy 3/4 of the way through a sandwich. But for those who want to start cutting back on meat and trying soy products, I highly reccomend the fake chicken salad and fake BBQ chicken - it's pretty amazing. And even more amazing, both dishes are vegan - not just vegetarian.

Flat Earth Baked Veggie Chips
Mike and I bought a bag of these some time ago (around our housewarming), but we didn't get to eat any as the crowd at the party gobbled them up first. We tried to snag some for ourselves this time around, and I am glad we did. We purchased the Tangy Tomato Basil, and I am pretty happy with them. A bit strong in flavor, but with a bit of french onion or ranch dip, they get cooled down. They are still chips - so they aren't health food - but with the amount of veggies included in each serving, I feel less guilty having a handful of these with my fake chicken sandwich than a bunch of Doritos.
