So I have made it 3 weeks as of yesterday! Last week I ate a lot of "bad" Vegan food-cookies, licorice, etc. But once again, it wasn't hard to stay vegan. I'm not craving anything that is non-vegan so that's good.
My friend Meghan (check out her blog!!!!) had me over for dinner last week to have Seitan Sandwiches. They actually weren't bad. I was a little skeptical because it didn't look too appetizing but they were good and I even took some home and had more the next day. Meghan also bought some Tofutti ice cream bars at Whole Foods. I have had the Tofutti ice cream sandwiches and they were great. Meghan told me she bought chocolate covered cherry ice cream bars but they tasted a little like perfume. So after our Seitan sandwiches we both got one to eat. I took one bite and thought..."there is no way this is supposed to be cherry flavored." It really tasted like I was eating chocolate covered potpourri. I looked at the box and sure enough the ingredients showed natural flower and nectar flavors (rose, marigold, calendula, citrus blossoms, hibiscus, jasmine and lavender). I then looked at the box and while she thought she had bought chocolate covered cherry ice cream bars, she actually bought Chocolate Covered Flowers ice cream bars. Lets just say I will not be buying myself a box of those! I think Meghan put it perfectly when she said, "Only a Vegan would think of making chocolate covered flowers ice cream!"
Don't forget to check out the recipe blog and Meghan's blog!
