Each issue of Vegetarian Journal includes a column called Veggie Bits. Here we review vegan products that you might want to purchase. In the recent issue Virginia Slothour-Hudnall reviewed several items including the 2 below (as well as other products):

Honey, Sans Bees
Drizzled over waffles, stirred into a hot cup of tea, or baked into muffins, Bumble Bloom’s luscious honey alternatives will instantly sweeten your mood. Each of Bumble Bloom’s four flavors — Classic, Cardamom, Ginger, and Cinnamon — boasts an all-organic ingredient list and a perfect honey consistency that clings to the spoon. The Cinnamon variety packs the most intense olfactory punch, with a warm, enticing aroma that hits as soon as you open the jar and invites you to spoon a hefty dollop into your oatmeal or spread it thickly across toast. The distinctive flavor of the Ginger mock honey sparks thoughts of sesame noodles and glazed carrots and begs to be added to your next stir fry. The rich, sweet Cardamom was an instant favorite for the whole crew, inspiring pairings with masala chai, spiced banana bread, or even simple apple slices. And, of course, the versatile Classic works with each of these and more. Move over, maple syrup — America’s about to have a new favorite Canadian import! Sold in stores in Canada; ships worldwide from www.seebumbleinbloom.com and www.vegansupply.ca.

The Chocolate of Your Dreams
Dear Coco turns the “wow” factor up to 100 with their new Explore Peanut Butter chocolate assortment, featuring rich, silky Peruvian peanut truffles with a touch of heat, heavenly salted caramel, and peanut turtles that strike an intense, perfectly-blended sweet-and-salty note simultaneously. It also includes satisfyingly chunky PB&J cups with just the right dried-cherry-to-dark-chocolate ratio, a delicious and delightfully creative peanut-toffee-and-Old-Bay chocolate bar that’s everything you never knew you wanted, and a mouthwateringly enormous “Colossal Classic Peanut Butter Cup” that beats anything you ate as a child — no contest.
