I so waaant the Sprouts Stuffing Flavored Almonds and the H-E-B Snacking Nibs Guava. Unfortunately, for me, I have neither a Sprouts nor a H-E-B in my state. Booo hisss…
I think H-E-B is only in TX so most of us are out of luck. No Sprouts in my part of the country either.
Yep, I Google’d the locations of both…and, you’re right: H-E-B is only in Texas. That does, indeed, leave most of us out. Poop. 😛
Stuffing Flavored Almonds??? What the heck. Also, it’s hilarious that on a bag of almonds, they have an allergy warning: contains almonds. You don’t say…
Korean meatballs made with SRIRACHA?!?! I cannot believe that got past the Good and Gather marketers. Sriracha is Thai. Any Korean would be livid if they saw someone slap Sriracha on a meatball and call it Korean. Use gochujang, or bulgogi seasonings. Unless you do that, these are Thai inspired meatballs. I lived in Busan for 9 years so yes, I know what I’m talking about. This crap happens ALL the time here in the States, and it’s so embarrassing. Murica.
They make food specifically for sensitive stomachs? Isn’t that baby food? WTH?
Funny that you mention that: just a few months ago, I had a Michael Angelo’s Eggplant Parmigiana frozen entree for dinner (the so-called family-sized, 30 oz. or so), and found it delicious (and I highly recommend it)–but I had a wonderful case of indigestion the next day, probably from the tomato sauce’s acidity (combined with the portion size I had eaten), something I’ve never faced before. I’ve now learned to limit myself to half the family-sized entree, but I also can understand “sensitive stomachs” marinara sauce.
I’d venture to guess that the indigestion mostly came from eating that entire container.
LOL (I was waiting for a comment like that! 😉 ). It’s really not a huge meal (and I’m not a big guy)–certainly nothing more, and likely less, than one would eat at a restaurant, and it would serve me for a combined lunch/dinner meal. And no meat–28 or 30 oz. of zesty tomato sauce, eggplant (lightly breaded), and the like, and a lighter amount of cheese. Half the portion feels more like a dinner starter course at a restaurant–I’ve learned to have it over a bed of rice, to make it a filling meal. Nope–I think it’s the acidity in the tomatoes/tomato sauce.
🙂
Man, ppl who live near H-E-B’s and Sprouts have it good.
Had the Chicken meatballs. Don’t recommend, very chewy and the chicken taste overpowers everything else. Going to try the Korean…ah Thai? meatballs next.
honestly if you want top-tier frozen meatballs. the Trader Joe’s frozen turkey ones are super good. And you can add whatever sauce/seasoning blend you want because they don’t add anything to them.
And I’d also recommend IKEA’s frozen meatballs, esp. the vegetarian. 🙂
oh heck yes, those are so good!
Is Tomato Pesto not usually plant based?
I wondered the same thing, but then got to thinking: no dairy cheese?
