Tom Yummy!

Just needed to tell you about mg new snack discovery. Not an alternanut, but actual nuts (you are what you eat, indeed).

Way to go, Trader Joe's, cuz the Tom Yum chewy crisp cashews are addictively good. The flavor is savory, sweet, and complex, which for me constitutes a deeply satisfying snack.

All nuts do contain fat, and unfortunately cashews aren't the heathiest of nuts, with 25% of the fat coming atcha in the saturated (extra artery clogging) format. But these are all natural, vegan, and contain no trans fat (the evilest shit invented), and I think the benefits of a nice blend of vegan protein, mostly healthy fats, and complex carbs at killing between meal munchies outweigh the downsides.






Grab a handful (ONE handful) and enjoy. The natural lemongrass, chili, and touch of garlic makes this amazing!

Trader Joe's Tom Yum cashews, 2.8 oz, will run ya only 99 cents for 2.5 servings, a bahhhgin!
