When you’re vegan you tend to eat a fair amount of salad, and to me, the salad dressing is just as important as what goes into the salad. I generally prefer creamy dressings over vinaigrettes but creamy vegan dressings are hard to find, unless you make it yourself.
That said, my favorite salad dressing to buy is Renée’s™ Gourmet Poppyseed Dressing. If you didn’t read the ingredients and just looked at it, you’d probably assume it has dairy or eggs in it because it’s so thick and creamy. On the contrary, this yummy dressing is actually vegan.
The poppyseed dressing is their only creamy vegan dressing, but they also have several vinaigrettes that are also vegan. What I really love about these dressings, is that #1 They’re delicious and #2 They are all labelled to indicate things like dairy free, gluten free, egg free, cholesterol free, trans fat free etc.
According to their website the following dressings are vegan:
I went over the ingredients of several other dressings and they also looked vegan but didn’t have the vegan check mark, which I can’t figure out cause all the ingredients look to be okay.
Renée’s™ Gourmet is a Canadian company, so at the present time their products are only available in Canada. If you are in Canada though and haven’t yet tried any of their dressings, I highly recommend you do.
Brock talks about a web site (http://Barnivore.com) which is a resource to learn what beers, wines, and alcohol are vegan.
Brock takes us through his top 10 (or so) vegan beers to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day.
*Note: This was done as a joke. Brock did NOT consume every beer in this video. We do not condone alcohol abuse. Alcohol consumed in MODERATION has numerous health benefits.

Marta is gone so Brock does a product review in preparation for Valentines day. You guessed it, CHOCOLATE!

Brock makes a quick vegan snack/light lunch with nigari tofu. This tofu crisps nicely in a pan and closely resembles chicken in taste and texture! He demonstrates how incredible sharp Todco Ceramic knives are! You can win your own set this month (Feb. 2011) by “Liking” the Hannon Group on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/hannongroup and posting on their wall “I saw Todco Ceramics on Fit For Two TV“.
My husband and I recently got the chance to try Chicago Soy Dairy’s vegan cheese called Teese. We tried all four flavours that are available. The cheese melts really well and the Cheddar sauce makes amazing macaroni and cheese.
