Eco Planet Vanilla Organic Cookies

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm a sucker for cookies. Be it my Mom's, Isa's, ABC's, Liz Lovely's ....whatever, I just love them. Writing this post reminded me how much I loved those animal cookies with the pink frosting. Holy crap were those ever good! Or the grasshopper cookies with green frosting. I vividly remembering bringing those to Kindergarten to share with the other kids. MMMM! Ok, all I guess I'm trying to say is that cookies are the best and you just need to realize that.

So that brings us to the Eco Planet Vanilla Organic Cookies. These have to be some of the most adorable cookies I've ever seen. Aimed at kids (or adults like me), the cookies are shaped in eco-friendly symbols. And the best part is that they taste awesome. Yummy vanilla wafers of goodness!

Aren't these cute or what! So you have the sun, I assume representing solar power. Next is the wind turbine representing wind power. Anytime I see one of those for real, I'm so amazed. I'd love to see more of our energy produced by the wind. There are a ton of those things in Iowa, not so much in Nebraska. Kind of a bummer. Anyway...cute cookie #3 is the electric car. Hopefully we'll all be driving one of these soon. Or walking. Or riding a bike. Whatever you prerogative is. And last but not least is Mother Earth. So not only are these wonderful tasting cookies, they are a great lesson about the environment.

Salt Lake City Treasure Hunt

I took a short trip to Salt Lake City and I'm happy to report that it's very Vegan friendly! Great places to eat include Sage's Cafe, Vertical Diner, Evergreen, Este Pizza and City Cakes. I also spent a lot of time at the Trolley Square Whole Foods. While there I found a couple things I haven't seen anywhere else.

In the freezer section I spied these Raw Macaroons from Raw Melissa. They're straight outta Utah and pretty good! Coconutty goodness.

I've heard rumors of Chocolate Pirate Booty but I haven't seen this treasure with my own eyes...until now. Pirate Brands has made a nice twist on the existing Pirate Booty and they are addictive! Absolute chocolate heaven. Now Pirate Brands, pretty please put some more flavor on the Tings, thanks!

One of Annie Shannon's favs, I was excited to spot the Eco Planet Cheddar Crackers on the shelf. Growing up with Goldfish I needed to know if they were really the Vegan equivalent. It's my pleasure to report that they are! Cheesy with cute shapes, kids (and adults) will love these.

This Pacific Mango Macadamia bar from Bora Bora is one delicious snack bar. Flavorful Mango mixed with the crunchy macadamia was a pleasant surprise. It fell apart in my mouth, in a good way. I really enjoyed this!

Last but not least, Sharkies Berry Bites turned out to be one of my favorite finds. They are similar to Annie's Bunny Fruit Snacks (which I also love). Fruity and chewy and fun for big and little kids. Chomp!
