                                                                                                        PC Trio 

Thank you President’s Choice for making my life so much easier!  Need some veggies in a hurry? No washing, no chopping, no fuss.  Just open up a bag of PC’s Fresh Cut Washed Slaw, mix with your favourite dressing and “Bob’s your uncle”!

Do you know where that phrase came from?  You do now.

I dare you to compare this Soy Free plant based  mayonnaise by Earth Island to your regular  mayonnaise.  Ok, maybe if you just had the mayo on its own you would notice the difference, but not if it’s on something.

This vegan mayonnaise can be used in any recipe as a substitute for regular mayo.  It is just as thick and creamy as regular mayo and it has a nice tang to it too.

My 2.5 year old loves it and asks for more “sauce”.  He certainly comes by it naturally because his daddy loves his sauces!

Go on, try it.  I double dog dare you!

I would give anything to go back in time and eat healthier if it meant not getting Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA).  I don’t mean to be preachy, just trust me on this one. Anyway, here’s what Mercola.com had to say about the benefits and cautions of eating mushrooms. (I can just see some of you smirking right now)
