Want One Right Now!!!

It wasn't a staple part of my diet back in UK, and we have been here for almost 4 years now but I can't seem to stop thinking about it - what's that all about?

Pregnant?

It would be a miracle on several fronts

But seriously I can almost taste a petits filous. It's maybe cos hubby is over there eating all the things I can't have and I don't suppose he could sneak some past security in a nice cool bag. Besides after UK he has to go to Helsinki, Warsaw, Bergamo, Hamburg, Frankfurt and then home.

I think it tastes the same

Thanks Weeze, I'll give it a try. On a separate note I needed heavy cream the other day and HEB's own was out so I bought the organic Central Market brand. More expensive but thicker and definitely tasted the difference, more like double cream from home - was lovely. Made a fab cheesecake for valentines day with extra poured on top.

Oh I'll try that thanks. I tried one from Costco the other week as well that tasted more like double. It was in an old fashioned milk bottle.

Mmm, Petit Filous - used to buy extra for my kids so I could eat them too!

Horizon organic cream is really good too, it doesn't have that waxy taste a lot of cream out here does. My local Costco sells a huge carton of it for about $6. Made some lovely pannacotta with it at Christmas

Have worked my way diligently through a whole bunch of yoghurt and have found 'the one'. Honey Vanilla 0% Fat and 100 cals a pot - this will fill the void. The coconut one is yummy too

HEB have it now. Buddy Petit Swiss Yoghurt. It's Petit Filous with a new label.

Ooooh I am very excited, will pick some up this weekend. Hubby says we can go to Trader Joes too, arrgghh...

p.s. that greek one above if very nice if you sprinkle on some pecans or walnuts and drizzle with extra honey, it's my 'thing' just now

Muller yoghurt is now available over here too, well it is on the East coast. Stocked up on Fruit Corners!

Almost all cream in the US has seaweed in it. Fact.

Do they use it to make dulse de leche ... ?

New Ben & Jerry's flavour - Sargasso Sea.

That one actually sounds marketable ...
