Two Reviews One Post

You guys know I'm ride or die for Just Mayo. But I was in a grocery that I don't normally shop at, and they had this FYH chipotle veganaise on clearance for $1.51 a jar! I bought two, but I so wish I would have bought more! The chipotle Just Mayo is my least favorite of all the Hampton Creek products I've tried. I feel like it's overwhelmingly smoky. This is spicy first, with a smoky aftertaste. It's thick and almost reminds me of a smoky spicy cheese spread. I've been dipping all the potatoes in it!
I can't recommend this enough. I guess FYH hasn't totally lost me after all! If you haven't tried this, you really should. It's in my top five of favorite condiments for sure!
I read about this summer edition GT's kombucha on Instagram earlier in the summer and until now I haven't seen it anywhere. I had the world's worst day yesterday so when I went to Natural Grocer's to get some of the Live kombucha while it's still on sale, I finally saw this! Even though it wasn't on sale I splurged because seriously yesterday was a doozy of a day. It is so incredibly delicious! It kind of tastes like a cherry/watermelon jolly rancher. Yesterday was over one hundred degrees so there are no fall vibes here in SLC. So this was extra tasty. If you see this anywhere, try it soon! I think it's only going to be around through the summer!
Here's Afro sleeping like a Queen on the red throne. Look at all that cat hair! Roxy, Afro and Etta are all super fluffy long hairs and they sleep on it the most!
All is well on operation Kitty Soup kitchen. I've now noticed that about five cats show up at different times. So far I've been able to feed them all with no threats or fines. Fingers crossed it continues!

  1. Hey there. For the past few weeks, I haven't been able to leave a comment here. I'm going to try again...

    Congrats on the new job. If nothing else, hopefully it enables you to branch out into new adventures in cooking. Love the ferals. My husband and I also feed a group of ferals. Over the years there have been many. Our oldest, Sophie, who had two litters before we were able to TNR her just recently stopped coming around. She was 13 years old. We cut holes in our shed and built shelters for them. It's pretty nuts. I think our neighbors hate us. You're a good soul.

    1. I've always wished that I lived in a house with a shed or garage because I would totally turn it into a shelter for all the homeless cats. And I wouldn't have a pesky landlord.
      I'm glad you were able to leave a comment!

  2. When I first looked at that 2nd pic I thought it was a bunch of peeled bananas and a bowl of peanut butter and I wondered why you were going to put vegan mayo on them! LOL OMG I don't know WHAT I was thinking! teehee!

  3. I'm not sure if I've had that FYH! I've had the chipotle Just Mayo, and I agree that it's too smoky. It's good but not as good as it could be.

    1. You seriously need to try the FYH! I mean, I feel green dragon sauce level addicted! I am so sad that I only bought two jars!

  4. The chipotle vegenaise is the best! Ugh, over a hundred degrees?! Hopefully it will start feeling like fall soon! Glad to hear everything's going well with feeding the kitties; hope it continues to go smoothly! :)

    1. I am seriously addicted!!
      It has started feeling like fall this week. It's like the hundred degree day was summer's last hurrah.
      So far the secret feedings have been a success!

  5. I don't do mayo of any kind (an old aversion from my pre-vegan days) but I can appreciate a good deal and that is a great deal! That kombucha flavor sounds so good to me. Definitely refreshing on a hot day. I hope that work is going well and I'm glad that you've been able to find a good routine to keep the kitties fed and happy!

    1. It's so funny in my pregan days I was anti mayo and also very anti ranch. Now as a vegan I love them both. So weird.

  6. That sounds like such a refreshing kombucha flavour!
    We don't have Just Mayo here, but we get the regular and garlic flavours of Vegenaise. I haven't tried the garlic one. I don't know why we can't get all of the flavours if we can get two of them!

    1. The kombucha is really tasty. I don't want the flavor to go away!
      I've never seen garlic veganaise to be honest. It sounds delicious! It is strange that you can't get all the veganaise flavors.
