Earth Grown Vegan

A respectable mock meat option from Aldi. Personally I thought these were a bit salty (and I used only around half the sauce packet). Texture was a bit tougher than Gardein.

I appreciate this option, but I didn't love it. more

Squirt

Got to talking to my nephew about obscure sodas, and the topic of Squirt soda came up. He hadn't ever had one, so I had to grab a six pack so we could knock a few back together. 🥤

Can't say enough good things about the TALT from Kollective Coffee! Some of the best tempeh bacon I've ever had. The bread was warm and soft, and the lettuce and tomato snappy and refreshing. Excellent ambiance in there as well.

10/10!

Heck yeah! Not normally a snickerdoodle guy, but when I saw this vegan snickerdoodle cookie at Kollective Coffee & Tea in Hot Springs I had to sample it!

Excellent texture, fantastic taste, and not crumbly at all. Made more

This cinnamon rolls was really delightful! The pastry itself was soft and warm, and the frosting was perfectly sweet. The lovely hint of orange was a wonderful highlight to an already delicious flavor. Wish we lived closer, more

Delighted to see any vegan ice cream at all on Bath House Row in Hot Springs National Park. Nice that Mamoo's Creamery made with not one, but three different vegan choices 🍨

The texture was a bit gummy compared to say more

The Mountain Valley

This water will have you saying "H Two Whoa!" 💦

The Mountain Valley Spring Water Company has been bottling water from the Ouachita Mountains since 1871. I try to avoid bottled water because of waste, but these were given more

Oh man, this was incredible! Such a delicious take on the tradition Pop-Tart ®

The pastry itself was a bit more dense than the snack that serves as its muse. But I liked that better anyhow. The filling and frosting were more

Alright, I was totally conflicted about reviewing these Cinnaholic bite-sized baby buns. Since the company is 100% vegan and from Berkeley (I hold the East Bay close to my heart), I was very excited to try these and I wanted more

beckyyy Bummer! They’re so cute, and a good option when you don’t want a whole roll. 3 likesReply
acastillon @beckyyy yes the perfect size! I'll definitely try them again when I see one (I don't think there are any in Wisconsin currently).2 likesReply
louisg I’ve never had a bad experience at Cinnaholic (in Toronto and Ottawa, Canada). Maybe you just got a stale batch of the baby buns. Give them another try. 3 likesReply

Culture Pop Soda

Yum! This was a refreshing drink, with excellent flavor. I loved that it didn't taste artificial, and that they use juice blends and spices to flavor the drink. Also glad that they don't use any artificial sweeteners, refined more
