Last Thing You Bought?

That sucks. I wonder if individual Targets decide what to stock. I love that mac and cheeze, but it has way too much daiya for me, so I cook some extra pasta and it is enough for 2. It is I think $4.50 at target, which is ridiculous enough.

One other local grocery got rid of the Gardein stuff in favor of some veg but non vegan stuff in white bags, can't remember the name. If I were rich I would live in Whole Foods. :(

Same here with a local grocery chain. They added more of Lightlife's frozen burgers/meals. I think that might be the same brand that you are referring to.

The Target nearest my house keeps reducing the amount of specialty frozen items. There's only one end-cap freezer case for them, and it's now half-full of Kashi things with meat in them. They used to have a few vegan Amy's meals, but they don't have any now- they've all got dairy. They got rid on some of the Gardein items and expanded the non-vegan Quorn offerings. :(

I've never seen the vegan mac&cheese anywhere other than Whole Foods, and they want $6 for it so I've never tried it.

I wonder what's up with the sudden increase in adding Quorn products at both Walmart and Target. I would think Gardein would be in a much higher demand rather than Quorn.

A lot of shelf space in chain supermarkets (especially high-profile spots) is paid for. Maybe Quorn paid to get more shelf space? Idk.

Yes Lightlife is it, thank you! Not vegan. I was wondering if Gardein is finding it hard to keep supply up with demand, especially since they are now using it in all those nonvegan frozen meals.

Both sound like good possibilities. It really sucks that the vegan options are being replaced with the non vegan ones.
 
After a lot of back and forth mulling, I finally caved and bought an iPad over the weekend. So far, I'm really happy with it even though I've already hit a couple of walls with Apple's refusal to support Flash (so much for using this as an e-reader for school). I can really see this thing replacing my MacBook for a lot of my daily activities.

I guess Target will stock what sells. I'll continue to get some vegan stuff there as long as they carry the items. I hope they continue to carry the vegan Amy's products.

Kashi irritates me. It must be their pretentious advertisements.

Kashi was also on the naughty list of companies who fought the GMO labelling bill in California, so yeah, screw them.

Woah!!! I didn't know that. Thanks for the info! I just knew I didn't like them. And they try to act so cool in their advertisements. Knew they were fakers. :yuck:
 
I like one of Kashi's frozen meals- the Mayan Harvest or whatever the hell they call it. All of their cereals that I've tried have been pretty gross.
 
I bought the Amy's pizza with Daiya cheese. It was pretty good, but it needs more veggies or something on it. Next time, I will put some broccoli or spinach on it. The sauce was tasty, though.
I also bought some almonds and cat food.

They
do a fabulous TV ad campagne and it works with most people.

Funny how that is since their advertizements have always irritated me. I guess people fall for their crap.

For cereals I pretty much stick with Enviro Kidz and Cascadian Farms.
 
I like Kashi's cereals. They are the only cereal I've had that doesn't dissolve in milk. I like the fact that they stay hard and crunchy. I don't really care for their frozen meals although I haven't had them in years. I always liked the company because they are always offering free coupons and samples to their customers. I've gotten so many free sample boxes of cereal, snack bars, cookies, crackers, etc. from them. Usually when they roll out a new product they offer to send out these samples along with a coupon. I'm a sucker for anything "free":D.

Last thing I bought:
vitamins- Buy one get one free at Rite Aid
 
Went to Asda

Broccoli
Cauliflower
Carrots
Potatoes for my Mum
Mushrooms
Avocado
Blueberries
Red pepper houmous
Wholemeal bread for the freezer
Rye crackers

9 Bar - just realised it has honey in it. I'm not vegan yet but it pisses me off that I didn't check because I wouldn't of bought it. Stupid.
Oats
 
Regarding the different Targets selling various veg*an products: I've been told that each Target is actually a franchise, so it is possible that each individual store decides (out of a variety of choices) what to sell. There are probably some items that are consistent across all Target stores (such as a Michael Graves soap dispenser or something like that), but when it comes to food, obviously it varies from store to store.
