Food for Thought.......

Howdy! After reading Anjana's blog (check out the links on the right side to take you to her blog), I am considering becoming Vegan. Today, I checked out the natural foods store, Food for Thought, at Central and Hillside. I have never been in a whole foods store before and thought that I would give it a shot, being the health crazed person that I am. I had some typical, pre-conceived ideas before going into the store. Thoughts like, "I bet most of this stuff will taste like you know what," but surprisingly, those thoughts quickly went away upon entering the clean grocery area at the back of the store. The grocery area is divided up approximately by five aisles. There is all kinds of foods!! Pizza, honey, desserts (yes....made gluten-free) and the list goes on and on. And it seemed like several shoppers were getting all there dietary needs at the store, rather than going grocery shopping at Dillion's. The cool thing too was that there were savory samples to try like squash soup and bread slices. My favorite area was the trail mix area and spice area. I was able to sack up a bag of trail mix to snack on at work and at school. And the mix was even called "Student Trail Mix" for those students on the go. I couldn't resist. I also got some whole grain, brown rice cakes. YUMMY! I will put peanut butter on these for a fast, healthy, low-carb snack. So, if you get a chance Wichitans and future Shockers, check out Food For Thought. It is my new one stop shop for healthy snack foods.....
