Favorite Convenience Store/MiniMart Foods

Yeah, we've had it. And it is good, for soy (we usually end up with vanilla). It's gotten a lot better in the last couple of years. But it's not BEN AND JERRY'S CHUNKY MONKEY! We also eat the soy "yogurt" which takes some getting used to.

I do like sorbet and am usually happy with that. And you can usually get individual Dreyer's Whole Fruit bars at some of the finer convenience stores in the summer.

Hey Yellow (or anyone else!) - have you tried Tofuti-Cuties? I'm not a big ice cream fan, but these things are great little tofu-based ice cream sandwiches. They are small - about 2"x3" - but that's one thing I like about them - just enough to put a check in the box when you want something sweet, but not too much. Choc and vanilla get high marks from friends of mine, but I like coffee flavor best. You can probably find them in the same kinds of places that have big selections of soy products.

Well, yes, but when I saw the fat content on them, I decided that they are not allowed in the house (that is, eating 3 of them would make up my entire days' worth of fat! Yikes)! They also make these bars-on-a-stick called "monkey bars" or some such thing. Yummmmmmy, but same problem with the fat content.

HOWEVER, I'd probably splurge for one on a ride out a convenience store, but alas! Most convenience stores don't carry a lot of soy products! "Ummmm, do you have any frosted tempeh bites?"
