Brach's Mini Brite Candy Canes

 Brach's Mini Brite Candy Canes are great for adding color to your gingerbread house. they are otherwise chewy. The colors do appear to be different flavors so they add some variety to the mix, but they don't taste like candy canes so the shape is what makes them Christmas. 

To be fully honest, I only got these because I knew they would make the trip from Los Angeles to Mexico where they will be given to an orphanage. I'm sure the orphans will love these candy canes. Me, I can take them or leave them and I should leave them because I'm fat.

Rainbow Chard

Rainbow Chard is basically a mix of chard varieties to make a colorful bunch. The leaves are soft and the stalk is crunchy like salary. I often use this in salads but have to point out that it will not last as long as kale.  

To me this is like having two vegetables rolled into one as I often cut the stalk from the leaf. 

Chard is rich in nutrients and low in calories. Eat as much as you want! 

Trader Joe's and the Organic Carrots of Many Colors

In the world of carrots there have almost always been orange but if you really wanted carrots of other colors you could get purple and yellow. They kind of taste like normal carrots do and have few other high points. You like carrots these are a nice change, you don't the normal colored ones are cheaper.
