      The statement "cooking destroys food and most nutrients in it" invalidates your whole comment. Some nutrients are reduced or destroyed through cooking, yes, but others are made more available by cooking. So it's not a blanket statement you can make. Also, we probably couldn't have evolved our big brains if we hadn't started cooking our food. That's one theory, anyway.

    It stink that the Very Good Butcher went out of business. I hadn't heard about them before finding their products at Grocery Outlet. I love their stuff due to the protein content. Amazing! I do have about 20 more boxes of their ribs and steaks in the freezer 😃. They were $2.99 a piece!

    If you are looking for actual vegan gelato, you need to try Valsoia. It's an Italian brand that a local store recently started carrying, and it's my fav ice cream now. The chocolate almond cones are amazing, and I also love the vanilla ice cream bar dipped in chocolate- it's so simple but then I get to enjoy that lovely gelato texture.

    8:35 Not steak exactly, but the beefless bulgogi from Trader Joe's might be my FAVORITE vegan item they have! It's much less "seitan forward" and gets a nice char while heating all the way through. I won't lie it's real weird when you pull it out (all the pieces are frozen together) so I usually thaw it for like 10 minutes before cooking it, but even when I didn't it was still so delicious

    I love those Trader Joe’s grounds that come in the green bag. They are low in cals and fat but high in protein. I am really not good in getting enough protein each day so I just make a serving of it in a cup and mix it into whatever I’m having. It does not have much flavor but it takes on what you mix it in.

      ​@@leonore3349 It's actually true! A lot of Europeans don't like American chocolate because they think it tastes like vomit. This is because American chocolate contains butyric acid which is also found in vomit. European chocolate doesn't have this acid so they're not used to the taste.

    😭 they brought the Breyers where I live just to taunt me and then they stopped carrying it everywhere! Ice cream where I live is super expensive and many brand and flavors are hard to find. They first brought the chocolate one, which I loved, then they stopped bringing it and brought the cookies and cream, which was ok, my husband liked it a lot. They were $8, then they jacked them up to $10 and then they stopped bringing them all together.
    I like Oatly ice cream. I like that they have simple flavors such as strawberry and vanilla. I don't care for Oatly milk that much. Still prefer almond and soy for milk, but as ice cream it's really good.

    I'm glad you were able to finally get some of the Breyers non-dairy "frozen dessert" as the bovid exploitation industry calls it. Buy as much as you can, while you can, because if it's anything like it was here on the east coast, it had such poor distribution and finally it disappeared entirely. What a cruel tease. The Mint Chocolate Chip was just like the dairy version that I used to binge on as a kid. It's like why wouldn't they advertise it?! They might sell a ton of it.
