Alternatives to the B in BLT Sandwiches-MaryAnne

[Guest guest]

Mary Anne,

 

I'm kind of thinking I just might find tempeh at our local grocery

chain, HEB. They've expanded recently at one of the locations in

Waco, and are carrying a lot more items like that. And,

surprisingly enough, there is a Drug Emporium here that has a little

vitamin shop in back that has started carrying a lot of neat stuff.

I found Vegenaise there! So, I'm hopeful! Alas! no Asian markets

here yet! Thanks for the tip for where to start! Paula

spots here and there which resemble black mold...yuck I thought when

I first saw it. Then I read about tempeh and noted that the dark

coloring is from the fermented soybeans. I have never seen a price

on it, so I have not bought it. Supposedly it is a very good source

of protein and yummy when fixed with teriyaki sauce or bbq sauce.

You might find what you are looking for at an Asian market or a

large natural foods store, since it is probably a more speciality

item.
