    I have recently discovered well naturally sugar free chocolate, as well as some date based confectionary items... whilst they may not be healthy, there are not a lot of vegan treats out there, and everyone wants a treat every now and then.

    I am doing my level best to become a vegan at the moment, converting from vegetarianism.

    Woolworths stock some Sweet William chocolate products (as do Coles, and the Foodland that I shop at) which are vegan friendly. Also Leda 'Choculance' biscuits are vegan (as are the whole Leda range) and are suspiciously/wonderfully close to another biscuit we know and love (rhymes with flim-flam). Yum. Agreed, we all need treats. Mmmm treats.

    **** Smiths Bush foods breakfast cerial. Bush Foods Breakfast cereal is a delicious, low-fat blend of crispy grains, nuts and fruits seasoned with natural bush flavours such as strawberry eucalyptus leaves, lemon myrtle and rosella flower, combined with mango, pineapple, banana and aromatic wattle seeds. Yummy, I've found it hard to find at Coles.

    Chobani plain Greek yoghurt
    Chicken breasts
    Fillet steaks
    Frozen veggies in steamer bags (so damn convenient)
    Salad veggies - lettuce, tomato, cucumber, capsicum etc
    Eggs
    Raw macadamia nuts

    I work at my local Woolies.
    I noticed a couple of customers with slim pasta yesterday, hadn't seen it before. I'll have to try that one soon

    The main staples for me:
    chicken breast
    lean steak
    frozen veggies (microwave steam packs)
    eggs
    almonds and walnuts
    low fat yoghurt (not the plain/natural one. I can't stand the taste).

    I generally buy my lunch there each day. Either a single serve caesar salad and a yoghurt, or a weight watchers (or similar) meal and a yoghurt.

    I also grab lots of devondale uht skin milk whenever its on special for my protein shakes.

    I recently discovered Healtheries Rice Wheels in the Gluten Free/Health Food part of woolies. They are only about 74 calories per serve.
    The burger flavour tastes like burger men yum! (Also comes in Sour Cream & Chives, BBQ, Cheese and Roast Chicken)

    I don't shop at Woolies, but go to small butchers& little green grocers for 90% of my food.
    I like to support the little guys.

    Sometimes the impact companies are having in our communities is hidden. Take Woolworths, for example. They promote themselves as a family friendly grocery store, but they're also the single biggest poker machine operator, taking money from the most vulnerable people in our communities.

    Sorry to get off track- something to consider though.

    At Woolies my basket usually contains:

    RicePlus
    Slim Pasta
    Roasted capsicum pasta sauce (from near the deli)
    Chobani yoghurt

    I am usually a Coles shopper but these are things I cannot get there.

    I will have to give the Changs a go for a change.

    I love the Inghams Turkey Mince. I use it for burgers, rissoles, bolognese...you name it, I use it...so much less fat comes out of it than even the heart smart beef (although, I'll get that too if it is a good price) and it almost tastes like beef...my whole family loves it.
