vegetarian tidbits

Discoveries this week:

Mochi! Thanks to saracura for turning me on to mochi. I always saw it in its little package sitting blithely by the miso, never knowing quite what it did, what it was for, or what it tasted like. I can now say that I have tried it and I like it. Also, if yaaren and thaadd do not know about mochi, they should, as it has no poisonous gluteny or wheaty anything, and it is good.

Also found out that Smart Deli turkey-style slices now have a "great new taste". They are still not as tasty as industry leader Tofurky brand, but they are close, and much better than they used to be.

Further bullitens as events warrant.

BTW, United Noodle usually has a ton of flavors of mochi. You should definitely try the traditional azuki filling. Monaka are also a yummy traditional-style Japanese treat.

Oh, oh! They also have really good plum sorbet and matcha ice cream.

(okay, okay, I promise to stop going food-crazy in your thread!)
