St Benoit in Meyer Lemon

Add caption
Ok -- tried this St. Benoit in Meyer Lemon, and I must say it was delicious. 

First, there are tiny bits of lemon rind (how exciting!). 

It does have heavy cream on top (do you mix it in? What do you do with this?) and the underneath was creamy, but not a super thick texture.... like, a medium texture ;). 

Siggis banana and cinnamon no-added-sugar

Y'all, this Siggi's no-added-sugar Banana & Cinnamon was good -- creamy, a tiny bit tart. Not terribly sweet (duh because no added sugar, remember?), but still had a very comforting quality to it (are bananas comforting??). Maybe the combo of banana and cinnamon is calming...

Try this one and check out siggis.com to learn more!!

Culina dairy free and plant-based “botanical yogurt alternative”

I tried the Culina "dairy free and plant based" "Botanical Yogurt Alternative" (love the way they've phrased that, botanical lol).

At $4 each at Whole Foods, it is a bit on the pricier side for a yogurt, but how pretty is this packaging??

Also, the product states "billions of probiotics". Billions? Holy crap.

The texture had a whipped/light consistency, and mine had some tiny airbubbles -- I think those were the tummy friendly probiotics at work.

I tried the Strawberry Rose and Bourbon Vanilla flavors. They also have a Blueberry Lavender and Plain & Simple versions -- another try for another day. 

Because these are coconut-based, you could still taste hints of coconut. Pretty standard. But the flavors were still picking up on top of that.

Check out Culina -- let me know what you think!

Quaker Morning Go Kit

Quaker Morning Go-Kit was not my favorite, but it was okay, and convenient I suppose. The small yogurt in the box tastes like it's Chobani brand -- is it? I'm not a huge fan of Chobani in general...

It comes with some items to mix in with the yogurt and some granola bars. Not a huge hit, IMO.
