FARM RICH

Although we’ve also photographed the old favorite Mozzeralla Sticks, we’ll be highlighting the newest launch, Farm Rich Pepperoni Pizzeria Bites, on a cold day while blogging away or editing photos, these were our best friend and main arsenal against the hunger pangs we got during “No time to eat” week, better known as fashion week.

Yours to enjoy in mere minutes, you’ll find yourself stocking up on box after box.

ADDIE’S FINE FOODS

Oh me, oh my, I do love pie (stolen from the 1996 John Travolta movie, Michael) but it’s just so appropriate when talking about the mouthwatering pies from Addie’s. We’re not usually huge on sweets (we take candy in small doses) but pastry is another story. We do so love our pastry, and these small mounds of heavenly goodness will fully satisfy the desert lover in you. Addie’s Fine Foods takes fruits and vegetables and turn them into healthy pleasures, that not only taste amazing, but can be delivered fresh, right to your door. With decadent flavors like Sweet Potato Cheesecake, Lemon Icebox Pie, and Butternut Squash Cheesecake, you’ll forget that they’re healthy.

ALOUETTE CHEESE SPREADS

Our go-to for cheese spreads doesn’t disappoint when it comes to flavors. Alouette Cheese tantalizes our taste-buds (they’re sure to do the same to yours) with their latest launches. Did and top anything you desire with the array of savory spreads:

Alouette Toasted Everything with Sea Salt – the classic taste of an everything bagel with a touch of sea salt to be used any time of the day.

Alouette Zesty Ginger & Spring Onion – a combination of the distinctive flavors of zesty ginger and savory green onion with a touch of garlic creating a unique and artful blend.

Alouette New York Cheddar – a blend of mild cheddar with sour cream and chives for a smooth, yet complex, flavor profile.

Alouette Brown Ale Cheddar – the distinctive, warm flavor of Brown Ale with a distinguishing chocolate after-taste that perfectly complements cheddar.
