And can I say that I LOVE Gardein. I'm getting ready to make lunch for work this week. Broccoli and their boneless tips. The aforementioned tips being the absolute most beef-like thing I've ever eaten. I steam a pound of florets and cook a package of the Gardein, then toss the broc into the pan with the tips to simmer for a couple. Delish. Makes 2 meals (cuz I'm a pig) for less than $3 a meal.

I adore Gardein products. My favorites are the Scallopini and the Tenders. I could eat them daily.

They are the only place we've found (thus far) that carries them locally. One of my co-workers was going to check Whole Foods to see if they had them.

They have a searchable distributor drop down on the left of the page. Just went to their site on the package just now.

to stumble over these at my local family health food store. They actually caught my eye in a cooler I rarely look in just from memory of your post. I picked up a package solely on your recommend. Thanks.

How did you guys prepare them? Cold or did you heat them up and how?

Just sauteed in a bit of oil. Nothing fancy, though they could be tossed with other veggies, too.

And picked them up solely on my review? No pressure or anything, right?

Just happened to be in there to pick up a couple things and as I walked by the cooler thing, my photographic memory picked up on them and I thought "these are the things Will talked about"

They had 5 or 6 different things. I almost got the Thai dumplings too, but one of the main ingredients was carrots, so I opted to just try these.

If not, blame it on Paul. He picked them up first.

Will, you and Paul are beloved members of my extended family. You can do no wrong. Not that it matters, I ain't nobody.

Even without the goodies she conveniently ignores when I mention them.

See the above reply. He's not forgetting them, he's conveniently forgetting them.

Guess what I'm thinking of now? heh heh

What happens in March? My dog's birthday is in April, so that's not it.

I believe March is when you were supposed to buy me a baseball jersey.

edit: Is this threadjacking? Somebody get a host.

I just can't remember to send it.

I think we just hit meta.

Seriously though, no rush. I haven't even got to go to a game yet. And I'm sitting on a crapload of gift cards for tickets. No time.

my most recent kitty-cat liberation?

Boyfriend fail being what it is, so to speak.

You are the owner/operator of that. So...

That's not going to go over well.
