Andy Bowl of oatmeal topped with cinnamon and a tablespoon of real butter. Oatmeal cooked in skim milk. That's as far as I go with fat free. I would rather take the simvastin. George |

Andy I finally tried the peanut butter that is mixed with dark chocolate--with an organic berry spread in a sandwich. It tasted fine, but I can't help thinking that this PB is not as good for you as normal PB. (Wellll, dark chocolate does contain antioxidants, but there are other additives.) That was washed down by cafe au lait. -- Jean B. |

Andy I'm laughing at the "lite" and the fat free milk, then you throw in the avocado which is very high in fat Okay, I know you're balancing it out,just struck me as funny! When I'm sufficiently awake I'll have standard breakfast fa a couple of slices of whole grain toast with butter, 2 eggs (probably scrambled). This time instead of a couple of slices of bacon I've got some fresh pork sausage links. I'll cook those up and scramble the eggs in a bit of the pork fat. Tall glass of fat free milk just because I love the stuff ![]() Jill |

I've had benecol spread (not the lite version, though) at Mom's and it's not bad as far as butter subs go. I've gotten so used to skim milk even 2% tastes heavy to me. But it has to be ICE COLD!

Low fat plain yogurt with strawberries, blackberries and a little Uncle Sam cereal for crunch Tracy Tracy, I never heard of Uncle Sam cereal. I found their website. Looks very nutritious and natural. I'll have to try a box! Thanks, Andy |

If you are a believer, you might also appreciate that it is a low glycemic cereal - I find it among the few cereals I can eat without adverse glucose spike and quite satisfying. l, not -l, That's another plus! Thanks for the FYI, Andy |

What's for breakfast? OJ -- fresh squeezed from my tree. They're not at their best yet but still great. Black coffee -- origin varies constantly based on TJ's offerings. Rolled oats -- I gave steel cut oats a genuine try but still prefer the texture of the old standby. With sliced banana, as usual. "Jewish rye" toast -- Orowheat brand name, it's edible. I should find the breadmaker and try new recipes..... -aem |

I should find the breadmaker and try new recipes..... -aem Okay, this is some 20 years ago... I used to buy Orowheat whole wheat hamburger buns around 1988. This was really before the entire "whole wheat" thing had really caught on in grocery stores outside of California. And there I sat in Tennessee. I was reading the ingredients on the package one day and it said, "wood chips". I'm not making this up. Wood chips in my hamburger buns?! I'm sure they've changed that, but I never could figure it out. I just stopped buying that brand. Here's what I bought the Orowheat whole wheat buns for, and I quote most of a post from 2002 (so sorry, Peter Lucas, the Post-Lengthmaster!) Turkey Burgers "Indienne" 16 oz. lean ground turkey 2 green onions, minced 1-2 tsp. Tabasco pepper sauce (to taste) 2 tsp. soy sauce 1/4 tsp. ground ginger 1 tsp. sesame oil 4 wholewheat buns, lightly toasted In mixing bowl, combine turkey, minced green onion, soy, ginger, Tabasco and sesame oil. Form mixture into 4 thick patties (about 3/4 inch thick; they will shrink). Oven-broil or grill 5-6 inches from heat about 5 minutes on each side, pressing lightly when turning. Serve on toasted wheat buns with your choice of toppings. Serves 4 I'm not exactly sure what "Indienne" means. It came from Cooking Light Magazine, I remember that. But what I read on the label of the Orowheat hamburger buns, which were the only ones I could find at the time, made me shudder. Jill |

Turkey Burgers "Indienne" good sounding recipe duly cut & pasted When I use ground turkey I prefer the ground turkey NOT the ground turkey breast which is about as dry and grainy as dirt. Maybe the other ingredients rescue it? But what I read on the label of the Orowheat hamburger buns, which were the only ones I could find at the time, made me shudder. Jill I remember Orowheat. Didn't it become Branola (a favorite bread for years)? Then Branola disappeared. Maybe it's Arnold now but Arnold is squishy compared to what Branola was. Wood chips? For flavor or fiber? Hmmm... ![]() Andy |

I find fat-free milk most palatable I can't ever remember liking plain milk. It always felt like phlegm sliding down my throat. I have not had a glass of milk in more than 30 years, but I use a bit of whole milk on my cereal. |

A breakfast burrito from Jack In The Box. I'd been meaning to try one and finally remembered. Not bad for a FF two-buck breakfast.
