They brought me a sample to review when they first started selling it. https://cookeasyvegan.blogspot.com/search?q=oat+vellieAndreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16146578985330272891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2279822094292237889.post-55032802517895029282017-04-21T21:24:55.089-07:002017-04-21T21:24:55.089-07:00I was at VegFest too.

Wish I'd been to the TrueNorth one! I mainly cruised the samples. Best and most unexpected was the oatmeal yogurt, I hope that becomes available in our area!Mary @ Fit and Fedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07207885951223952745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2279822094292237889.post-14898839820497160152017-04-09T17:04:08.841-07:002017-04-09T17:04:08.841-07:00I am pretty crowd phobic, but the crowds at vegfes...I am pretty crowd phobic, but the crowds at vegfest are reasonable, and fairly well-behaved. The samples just didn't seem as compelling as I remember from past years. And, yes, I passed up a few because I didn't want to wait in line. There were samples of Indian food that were extremely popular, and I really wanted some, but alas, too many people at the table for me.

Still, it looks like you did get to try some interesting stuff. And yes, I agree about the single serve (or for that matter most serves!) that involve plastic wrap. It's not something I indulge in often, but something I could probably do without!

I've never been to a vegfest in another city, so can't compare. I've heard Portland vegfest is great!Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16146578985330272891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2279822094292237889.post-21635865151796751782017-04-09T09:31:27.918-07:002017-04-09T09:31:27.918-07:00I'm totally envious.

It was much saltier than I expected, and 'cringe' is the right word for single serve packaging. Same for the Frooser. I suppose we can make our own tofu and frozen desserts...Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16146578985330272891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2279822094292237889.post-32451305465824752272017-04-07T17:06:45.287-07:002017-04-07T17:06:45.287-07:00How fun to sample so many new food items!

Frooser sounds a lot like the Freeze from Press Juicery, I love that soft serve made from just fruit and veggies. I've also tried the Go Umami tofu too and cringed at the single serving packaging.chow veganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08067485016430365599noreply@blogger.com
