    I like real olives; so glad to read my hatred of canned black olives is justified! ;)

    The best are those little wrinkled black olives.

    When I was coming up, the only time we got olives was a bowl of inexpensive green pimento stuffed olives for thanksgiving. It was an insane treat in our minds and we would literally fight over them.

    Those stuffed little red pepper poppadoms(?) thinggies are pretty good too.

    I noticed today Kroger reinstated their olive bar. I spent a few minutes sadly browsing the posted (and clearly marked, bless them) calories before I walked away. They had tapenade. I was rooted to the spot for a while.

    Yum!

    One lasts a long time and it’s only 7 calories.

    @springlering62 - those ingredients are scary😮 but then again, I just have to look at my 'addiction' to Jordan Skinny Syrups....water, natural & artificial flavor, cellulose gum, sucralose, sodium acid sulfate, citric acid, sodium benzoate & potassium sorbate (to preserve freshness), acesulfame potassium, caramel color🙄

    But do you drink it by the bottle? If not, nothing to worry about. everything in moderation.

    oh oh...I might then just be in trouble...🤣

    A jar of umami I have been using lately is Chinese olive vegetable. The fruit looks like an olive but is not the same species. Nonetheless the taste is a bit reminscent of tapenade. Particularly useful for vegans wanting to expand their arsenal of umami bomb ingredients.

    I absolutely love my nightly tofu with cinnamon, teaspoon cacao powder or fennel powder stevia and plant protein- I make my protein in mug, hot water, almond milk and glucomannan powder. Heat in microwave until rises, top with teaspoon of unsweetened cacao powder and stevia

    Oh my gosh...GROWING OATMEAL. Twice the portion size with the same amount of calories and it’s absolutely delicious!! If you haven’t tried this, find a recipe...or ask me. This is a GAME CHANGER. You’ll never go back to microwave oatmeal.

    Ok. I bit and googled it. What makes it different from regular cooked oatmeal and why is it called growing? I don’t get it?

    I posted this before too you add like 5c of water and keep microwaving it and cooling it so it gets super big and fluffy so it’s like 4c of oatmeal instead of 1c for same calories

    Carrots.
    No idea why, it just happened past couple weeks. Raw from the fridge, like a rabbit lol in huge quantities, I wonder if my skin will turn reddish.

    a few years back i went through my carrot phase... would eat entire backs in a sitting! Made myself sick from them and now I get nauseous thinking about them haha

    I think you're the person that made me try silken tofu with chocolate syrup, cinnamon and zero calorie monk fruit sweetener based on a picture you posted as dessert months ago. I loved it and have eaten it every single night ever since. It's one of my favorite foods of all time!

    Awesome! Yay! I love my tofu! Yes I have done other things with it- SF Maple syrup, butter flavor salt ( vegan) chocolate protein powder, powdered peanut butter and maple. Cocoa powder and Skinny Syrups to name a few 🙂

    So this is just making regular oats with twice the water, and if you cook it long enough it absorbs all the water?

    Back when I used to have oats for breakfast I'd make steel cut in the rice cooker and add extra water so I could stir in protein powder at the end, and also add berries. It certainly wasn't twice the water, though.

    Orville R. Smartpop popcorn. I eat it almost every day! The snack size bag is delicious, only 100 calories, and it satisfies my munchies. If I have extra calories I mix in a serving of cheez it snack mix or I eat 2 bags! 😛

    Been spraying this ginger spice in everything !!! So good to add to coffee, pudding, yogurt veggies chicken etc. for some reason it has a lot better flavor than adding ground ginger spice and I like that it is just liquid.

    ^I'm quite sure I'd absolutely love this stuff too! I'm pretty sure I can't get this stuff though (Canada sometimes makes me sad😥)
