We spent the weekend in Vancouver and, as always, found something new and fabulous to eat, aside from Timbits.
This time it was Liberté Méditeranée brand yogurt. It’s sold at Urban Fare and other supermarkets, but there’s a dairy stand at Granville Island with an especially strong selection. The flavors include coconut, mocha, and mango-orange; we tried hazelnut. It has a hazelnut paste on the bottom to stir in, just slightly crunchy. It’s not as thick as Greek yogurt, but it has plenty of milkfat.
It’s made in Quebec and available all over Canada. Apparently you can find it in the Northeastern US, too.
I really never thought I’d get excited about yogurt, but now I eat it all the time. It’s the active probiotic cultures, or possibly the heavy cream.
Yeah, it’s available here in Boston at Whole Foods. I’ve bought it! It’s good!
Wasn’t that insightful?
Boo to Vancouver without us. We were even idly talking about going up to visit last weekend.
Visit you guys, I mean.
We stayed in the exact same apartment, even. But come visit anytime. Bring yogurt.
My favourite is from their 2.5% line, the Orange and Marzipan one. Almond paste and little bits of real orange, delicious!
Critical update: I am enjoying the wild blackberry flavor now.
