steamed edamame (soybeans) - not a fan
virgin coconut oil - never had it
commercial peanut butters - I have Jiff in my pantry. It's what I was raised on - my dad loves his PB and is very particular about brand.
lactose free chocolate milk sweetened with sucralose - never had it
whole kernel corn - My family raises sweet corn. We freeze it for the months when we can't have it fresh.
farmed salmon - I don't get too particular about farm raised vs. wild caught
lowfat grainfed beef - My family raises beef cattle (grain fed). We get together once a year and process our own. I know everything that has been fed to the cow I am eating and I cut the steaks myself.
pinto, black and kidney beans - I buy canned beans and rinse before cooking with them. I never seem to let the dry beans soak long enough and then they are too tough. I use black beans often.
albacore tuna - I always bought chunk light tuna in water (because that is what I was raised on). Then I sent my husband to the grocery store and he got the albacore since he didn't know better. It has a slighttly different taste. Now we mix it up, but still never buy the stuff in oil. Accidently grabbed it once and hated it.
>80% cocoa dark chocolate - I prefer milk chocolate over dark.
imported organic fruits and vegetables - Here in the upper midwest, we get a lot of produce imported from Mexico since local is only available for a short time. I am not organic only.
food grade wax - I used it once a long time ago to make some homemade candy (it was an old recipe). But I have found other ways to make candy without the wax.
