Sambal Oelek Ground Fresh Chili Paste
Love this stuff. I am in trouble if it runs out. Luckily, you can find it in most supermarkets (at least I don't have a problem finding it.)

For me, organic milk has always made a difference. I started buying it because I felt good about keeping at least some chemicals out of our water then found that I loved it. I never enjoyed drinking a glass of milk before I tried organic. Now it's... (show more)

Mini-Wheats Lightly Sweetened Whole Grain Wheat Cereal

Utterly satisfying. Must be that little shot of HFCS. :)

Weight Watchers »I think of all the programs out there to help people manage their weight, Weight Watchers is one of the best.

Diabetes »I'm interested in finding low-sugar foods.

Organic »I never liked drinking milk before I tried organic milk. This was a sort of revelation for me. I think organic not only tends to taste better, but IS better for the world in general.
