Italian. I've been living in California (Bay Area) for 6 years.

I usually have to get used to an orange juice before I like it and it was very easy to get used to this one's taste. I like it, and it's also not from concentrate and organic.

Nothing more than a vegan butter. I don't use it often but it's great to have it and it lasts a long time in the fridge. Approved!

I was looking for a soy unsweetened yogurt for a while because it is really useful in many vegan preparations and can be transformed to create something that can substitute cheese. I couldn't find one in USA, even though more

Does what a water cracker does: not much but it gives a good base for any kind of yummy sauce. I usually pair it with hummus and add something like olives on top. It's a good finger food base because it's very neutral. However more

Who does not want a farro that cooks as fast as a pasta? I love this because it allows me to put some variety into my carbo intake without requiring very long cooking times.

Good chickpea flour that I use for "farinata" and other baking meals. It's not a lot if you use it regularly but sometimes you can find a box with four of them on Amazon.

Very good dark rye flour, it adds lots of fibers to any baking product you are making. I usually add it to the regular flour for its nutritional value.

I'm picky about a good kind of tomato in a can. I don't like them when they taste too acidic and this does not. It's a very good alternative to more expensive brands who carry San Marzano types of tomatoes.

It reminds me of Oreos but it has a different aftertaste. I appreciate that all the ingredients are organic and that it states on the package that 100% of profit goes to charity!
Overall a good alternative to Oreos.

Hand made, with just the right amount of salt. Perfect little alternative to bread. It's not a huge amount though.
