    Applegate Farms Uncured, Hardwood Smoked Sunday Bacon Sarah R.

    Applegate Farms Uncured, Hardwood Smoked Sunday Bacon

    I recently read The Omnivore's Dilemma, and since learning about the intimate details of commercial feedlots, I've tried to buy more "humanely" treated meat. Thus I was curious to try this bacon, given that it was advertised as antibiotic- and nitrate-free, along with grain-fed.

    Well, it turns out that it's also super-delicious and flavorful. The downside is that it only comes in 8 oz. packages, whereas many other brands come in 12 or 16 oz. packages. I will buy this again, because although it's more than I usually pay for bacon ($4.49 for the aforementioned 8 oz.), but I feel that it's worthwhile to eat more "virtuous" bacon for how seldom I actually buy it.

    Dirty Mesquite BBQ Potato Chips Sarah R.

    Dirty Mesquite BBQ Potato Chips

    This is a really delicious kettle-style chip that doesn't skimp on the flavor. I'm usually disappointed by a lot of BBQ chip brands, because most of the time it's just sugar and salt with a tiny bit of BBQ flavor/orange coloring. Blandsville. Not so with these chips. There's a ton of flavor with a nice, satisfying crunch. Yep, I'm hooked.

    Wallaby Orange Passion Fruit, Creamy Australian Style Lowfat Yogurt Sarah R.

    Wallaby Orange Passion Fruit, Creamy Australian Style Lowfat Yogurt

    Yum! I kind of go through yogurt phases. For a while I'll buy it, and then suddenly the "yogurt switch" in my brain gets flipped and I can go a while without it. I'm somewhat picky when it comes to my yogurt, too: no fruit-on-the-bottom, low-fat only, and no really odd flavors (chocolate chiffon, anyone?). I'd heard about Wallaby from a few other people, and one day I found it in the store and decided to try it. My local Shaws only carries a handful of flavors, so I picked Orange Passion Fruit, Vanilla, and Peach. Unfortunately, I think the peach was past its prime, because something definitely tasted and smelled off when I opened it. The Orange Passion Fruit, however? Delicious. It's a nice citrusy, tropical fruit flavor without being too overpowering. One thing I like about this yogurt... is that it's low-fat, yet still has a very rich and creamy flavor/texture. Also, all the fruit varieties I've tried so far were blended. Yay blended yogurt! It's more expensive than my previous go-to brand of Dannon Light & Fit (which I'm still fond of), but it's nice to try something different. Wallaby definitely has Light & Fit beat in the creaminess department, too. And considering how seldom I typically buy yogurt, I can afford to spend a little more on a tasty little organic dairy treat.
