A few weeks ago, during that gloomy period just after Thanksgiving but before the unofficial start of the holiday season, when night falls at 4:30 pm, I was the recipient of a box of sunshine. Well, a bit of culinary sunshine, to be more precise. A box filled with various prepared salads and hummus varieties from Cedar’s Foods was delivered to my door.
The arrival of this array of treats couldn’t have been more timely. In the middle of a very hectic weekday afternoon, I got a call from my brothers and their wives; having cut short a trip due to inclement weather, they wanted to stop by on their way back home. I opened the box I’d just received from Cedar’s and thought, “Instant dinner!” I did have the wherewithal to make a pot of soup for this bone-chilling day, and the salads and spreads I’d just received seemed like just the thing to round out this spontaneous meal.

Recently, I received the new line of vegan cookies from Mama Micki’s All Natural Bakery. Mama Micki’s all-natural cookies have more of a homemade flavor and texture than some of the brands of vegan cookies that have gone national. No wonder, as they’re all made by hand, from scratch. If you warm them slightly in the oven or microwave, they have even more of a homemade flair. Read More→

Recently, the company that makes Tribe Hummus sent me two new flavors to sample (one of the nice perks of being in the vegan website biz — I get very cool things to try out) — Olive Tapenade and Cilantro Chimchurri. Did you know that hummus, as a category, has been one of the fastest-growing and best-selling of snack food categories in the U.S.? And unlike a lot of other snacks, even so-called “natural” ones, hummus actually has food value, as its main ingredients are chickpeas and tahini (sesame paste). Read More→

Full disclosure: I’m not personally a big fan of meat substitutes, but I can fully understand why other vegetarians and vegans like them. I grew up with meat as a child, and one of the reasons I went vegetarian as a teen way back when was that I simply didn’t like it. Fast forward to my own kids, who have never tasted meat, and they really enjoy meat substitutes. I’m sure it’s the satisfying texture and heartiness that appeal to them, as they have nothing to compare the taste with. Read More→
