Tofutti

There are so many things my Mikey has had to live without in his life. His allergy to milk, or whey, has deprived him of so much. Only in the two years we've been together has he tasted the likes of chocolate (dark chocolate) and mashed potatoes (sans milk). Now, he has tasted even more with the invention of tofu-based products. A trip to Whole Foods Market gave us the discovery of a product called "Tofutti." This brand makes sour cream and cream cheese without dairy. They even have flavored cream cheeses. I've tasted it myself and other than a small difference in consistency, the taste is identical to the real thing. Now my honey can enjoy baked potato with sour cream and eat bagels with cream cheese in the morning. Who knows, maybe I'll attempt a cheesecake with Tofutti cream cheese. Oh the possibilities! Thank you Tofutti!
