RE: Sunday Dinner With My Japanese Pastor @senseicat
Yes! It seems that anything and everything is either good or bad for you! How are we supposed to wade through all this stuff? I have been dairy free for the past 3 years and gluten free up until the last few week due to side effects of eating those foods. It wasn't pleasant!! I've been experimenting to see how that turns out. So far, not entirely sure that I want to keep the gluten. Anyway, experimentation with food really seems to be the best way to tell what works for the individual. Keep experimenting!
I have been experimenting for years to figure out what seems to be the best for me so at this rate, it will be a couple of more decades before I get it just right! Though, I added raw kefir and really enjoyed it yesterday.
There is a product on the market called Daiya. They are vegan based dairy free products. They have the most awesome tasting "cheese" I've ever tasted! It even melts like real cheese! They have "yogurt" which is tasty and "cream cheese" which I've not tried yet. I am also a coffee-holic, and could never really find any coconut milk that would make a delicious mocha. So......I found a product called Ripple (no, not the bottled wine from the '70's LOL), but a non dairy product produced from pea protein. It's soooo creamy and makes the most awesome hot mocha's! I was so happy to find that.
I just discovered that brand yesterday at a specialty market and got the cheese and the yogurt. I thought both were pretty amazing. Ohhh, we both have to try to cream cheese and let each other know the results.
My husband's birthday is Tuesday and he has requested a cheesecake. So I suspect I might could let you know how that turns out with their cream cheese. :)
Good evening!! I just wanted to update you about the vegan cream cheese; I ended up not purchasing it after all, so I have no idea what it tastes like. If I do, I'll update you, and please, if you end up purchasing some, let me know what you think. :)
