Well, I certainly did :-) [mutter mutter whey powder in bloody *everything* mutter mutter] Do Sainsburys do an own-brand one? I know that their organic olive oil spread is dairy-free (cheers to Ben for discovering this), although irritatingly they don't sell it at the Sains Local near my work, but otherwise the only one I've reliably found is Pure. (I note in passing that Pure Organic tastes revolting. The stuff in the orange tub is fine though). > - Plain chocolate - Cayleys, Green and Black or Lindt - or Bourneville > when I can find some that does not contain buttermilk - they seem to vary > their recipe. I have 2 half-bars of G&B in my desk currently. One plain, one Maya Gold. Mmm. [eats more chocolate] > - Houmous. I even make my own now, and so: > - Chickpeas, and: > - Tahini. I've taken to making my own hummous more often as well now, so tahini has become a cupboard staple. This is not a foodstuff, but I have also discovered the Wonders Of The Hand-Held Blender, which is particularly good both for hummous & for soups (after we went through 3 regular blenders in about 6 months by cracking the jug pouring hot soup into it). > - Dairy free 'parmesan' - I am out of it at the moment so I can't remember > the brand, but I buy it in Sainsburys. I haven't yet found one that's better than doing without. I'd appreciate a brand name next time you get some? I can't really think of many new foodstuffs I've happened upon. Oh yes - dried chipotle chillis from the stall in Borough Market. *Fantastic* - a lovely smoky sort of taste. Also Tom introduced me to pickled garlic, which is v fine. JulietThere's stuff above here
