Yes and yes! I actually think the vanilla maple are even better than the chocolate chip, which surprised me. Kind of dangerous to have around, though. I got a good deal from amazon some time ago for them so am watching for another sale. And for some room in my freezer so I can't tell myself that if I don't eat them up…

Too bad they messed it up even with Just Egg. Have never scrambled up the liquid Just Egg, but I like the frozen Just Egg Folded, which I guess is intended as a kind of scrambled egg patty for sandwiches. I thaw it a bit and cut it up into small pieces and toast in the oven. Really good. Protein from mung beans. So it's…

Don't know how new these are in the cosmic sense, but they were new to me and quite tasty: Newer packaging might say True Goodness by Meijer. Ingredients just rice flour, sesame seeds, safflower oil, and salt. 130 calories, 2g protein for 19 crackers. Tasted good by themselves and with some Field Trip Chickpea Butter…

The cheese ones must be "plant-based" since I tried them and am allergic to dairy and egg so they just have been vegan-friendly. But the others look like they are made from animal meat, judging from the package. Check https://eatmikeys.com/collections/plant-based It looks as though they now have some more vegan-friendly…

I've tried the cheese Mikey's hot pockets and really liked them. Can't find them locally, alas. I got them online somewhere from a vendor that sends frozen.

Blake's has some very tasty versions of rice crispy treats: They are 90 calories each, vegan, gluten-free, and loaded with tasty seeds (no gelatin). I've tried, liked, and repurchased the original shown above, the strawberry, the chocolate chip, the pumpkin spice, and the birthday cake. Be aware that the best-by dates are…

Nature's Bakery also has really good 1oz fig bars in a variety of flavors. I've tried the blueberry gluten-free one (100 calories per ounce) and the whole wheat (110 calories) apple cinnamon, lemon, peach apricot, raspberry, strawberry. It's been quite a while since I had one, so don't know if the line has changed or not.…

Just tried Breyer's non-dairy vanilla ice cream on sale: It actually tasted quite good! It's made from oat milk while the two others I tried a while ago (cookies and creme, some peanut butter flavor) were made from almond milk and had not impressed me. But I would buy this again. I can add anything to vanilla. 1.5 qts for…

If you can figure out a way to store them without smushing the tops - this kind of pastry freezes very well. So it should be possible to cut them in half if needed and freeze the halves. Maybe they would store well in the original container?

It's a good brand, so they likely have good ingredients. Now if only the price of Dave's Killer Bread itself would come down from the stratosphere. It is so good and doesn't cause me problems even if I eat more than 1 bun or two slices (chancy for other bread). Not sure if that is due to the organically grown ingredients…

(Trying to reconstruct after preview/edit ejected me) Yes, indeedy to both. I put them on subscribe & save and got an additional discount for buying in sets of 4 at once. Still have about six cans of Snickerdoodle left to parcel out carefully. I also like the Korean BBQ so stocked up on those. Elote seems to be a current…

Where? WHERE? WHERE!!??!!!

Amazon has the individual 6oz cans of snickerdoodle and peppermint cocoa almonds, but seem to be delivering in November. Also 14oz bags of cinnamon and maple diamonds. The bags are available on sub&save also.

32 grams of plain peanut butter (just peanuts and salt), which is two tablespoons, has 180 calories and 8 grams of protein, which is 1/5 my protein minimum for the day and much less than 1/5 my calories for the day. So for me, it's a good protein source. I often eat maybe 16 grams of peanut butter or less at a time,…

Maybe they're consumer testing the idea of Lays Roasted Brussels Sprouts chips ... 🙀 Brussels sprouts deserve some love.

These are probably pretty good and I'd try them if I could find them and they don't have anything problematic for me. Vegan Rob has really tasty Brussels sprouts puffs based on sorghum rather than the usual corn.

Good grief, man. Get yourself the #%#% trainer if you want. Ask the trainer if he or she can sometimes do a session with your wife if she really wants one with no longer commitment and ask her to make her own arrangements if she decides to try it. Or ask your trainer about others who might be a better fit for your wife if…

My knees are genetically wonky and problems started at age 12. Haven't been able to run since then. As an adult, I eventually discovered glucosamine and that really does help me heal when I've accidentally abused the knee (clumsy) and taken regularly, it seems to prevent most problems. I saw an effect within two or three…

Check out info on this site: heelspurs.com. Other sites with similar names so look for the one run by Scott Roberts (an engineer) and with a technical drawing of a foot on the first page and a free pdf download with suggestions he's collected over the years for dealing with plantar fasciitis. He has a list of home…

You might also consider getting better advice about pain management. Doctors too often do not pay enough attention to that. But it's a limiting factor when trying to maintain and increase mobility as well in healing in general. Sounds like you have plenty of other concrete ideas about ways to get more movement at least.…

You can ease into vegan eating (and you do not have to go along with any orthodox agenda) to see how it works for you. At least reducing reliance on meat and fish as protein sources will bring in more plant-based options to try. Our protein needs are not as drastic as many carnivores assume and easy to meet on a normal…

Definitely agree about Follow Your Heart vegan smoked Gouda. I have 3 packs in my fridge at this very moment... plus one separated into wrapped slices in the freezer! Have to freeze because they are like gold price wise and so not a daily for me. They have been excellent right out of the package (not even melted) for at…

If you're looking for plant- based, you might try Country Crock's plant butter line. Uses palm oil (sustainably harvested), canola oil, and one other oil in each type (olive oil or avocado oil or avocado oil). I've tried all three types in stick form and they are really good, I like the taste better than butter and even…

I don't like the taste of Smart Sweets, there is something off about it. I do like Surf Sweets, which are very tasty. They don't have artificial sweeteners, I buy them because they don't use dairy or gelatin not for reduced calories. I don't eat so many that I would even worry about that. I've tried and liked their gummy…

The seat I was looking at a few years ago is a Hobson Easyseat. It also has a gel cover available. There are quite a few detailed reviews on Amazon that also might point to other options. Now there are YouTube videos illustrating and reviewing it.

I was looking at new seats a few years ago, hoping to eventually get back to stationary riding after fully recovered from a pelvic nerve injury. At the time I couldn’t really sit (or even lie down at one point) without pain. I still stand most of the time, maybe mostly from habit. The most interesting one I saw was called…

A while back I saw a YouTube review of a game on an old version of Wii using the balance board that made me wonder if getting a used one would help me improve my balance. My balance has always been terrible - I tilt when tired (a friend watching me says I walk like a drunk st sometimes.... veering off the path in the snow…

Actually, long before the Wii was even a gleam in some Nintendo developer’s eye, I was getting a lot of exercise playing the old 8-bit Nintendo. Learned early that it was easier to stand, could keep hand and arm more relaxed that way. Also used a stationary bicycle and a stepper sometimes. I routinely do walk in place…

If you need to limit fruit or just don't want the whole piece- you can cut into slices (sections for citrus) and freeze them flat on a tray and then bag or freeze directly in a zip bag (put enough in so you can prod them into a single layer when the bag is closed). Then you can eat one or two or three slices at a time.…
