    To thicken the whole container of soup, you get a tiny bit of it COLD and place the rest in a pot and start to warm it. Stir in like... let’s say at least 1 ½ tablespoons of cornstarch, arrow root powder or white flour in the little bit you reserved or you could do it with a bit of broth, stock, or water. Add it to the pot, stir to combine and bring to a boil and voila!

      Same. It has 12g of sugar and no sodium so I expected super sweet and no savory, especially since it’s been boiled down in jam form. Not a product for me but I like the idea of some savory tomato jam on biscuits! Might have to find a recipe!

    I came back to comment on the tomato jam. So as a good Portuguese person I was absolutely obsessed with the tomato spread. Terrible marketing because in Portugal it is a jam we use spread on bread for breakfast. Never with meats, like it says on the package. So I went back and snatched the last 4 at my Trader Joe’s. Gave one to my friend and just then realized it is product of Portugal. DUH!!!! Only 4 ingredients, no weird spices like clove and what not that I have seen people put in their tomato jam. No wonder I was obsessed with this and it tasted like my childhood!!! So funny!!!

      Alisha Kitchen - it’s not bad for you, but as it’s an animal product (enzymes produced in the stomach of ruminants - sorry if that’s too much info...), many vegetarians won’t eat products containing it. There are now vegetarian alternatives available. Rennet is used as part of the cheese-making process to thicken the milk into curds.

    I love the sparkling watermelon drink but I've never been able to try the peach one as it's always out! :( What is animal rennet and are you allergic to it? I'm new to this channel and I'm gathering you're vegetarian but not vegan? Trader Joe's is known for clean ingredients so I'm curious as to why it's in there if it is a bad ingredient.

    • @debbyd5729
      @debbyd5729 4 года назад +1

      Animal rennet are enzymes extracted from the stomach of animals. So it’s not a vegetarian or vegan ingredient.
      Personally, I wouldn’t say that TJ’s is known for using clean ingredients. Yes, they are known for having higher quality products than a typical grocery store, but - and again, this is simply my opinion - you can only be assure clean ingredients if you’re buying whole foods. TJ’s still uses synthetic ingredients such as “natural flavors” in many of their products and a significant portion of their products are highly processed foods.

    @violetviolet888 4 года назад +1

    Katie: There are yellow onions, sweet yellow onions (like Videlia), and white onions are more tender and can be more sharp or sweeter and cleaner in flavor than yellow (depends on the variety and how they are grown) but don't store quite as well as yellow onions do. The package does not actually say which color onions they are and if over generalizing by simply saying "sweet onions" which means they can swap out different onions that fullfill the "sweet" part. Just as "Cutie" or "Halo" citrus are generic for mini mandarins from whoever they can source from to fill the bags. From a distance they look like white onions. www.seriouseats.com/2014/06/differences-between-onions-yellow-red-vidalia-what-are-ramps-shallots-how-to-cook-with-onions-guide.html

      That’s such a bummer. I wonder if it’s the region that you’re located in...sometimes when produce travels a long distance with how hot it’s been produce goes bad faster. Sorry that’s been happening to you though, I hate wasting food too. My garden has come in clutch this year 😀

    Katie I’m going to send you over to your competitor😂. But not really your competitor Trader Joe’s wins hands-down. Try this tomato jam recipe fromwww.wholefoodsmarket.com/recipes/quick-sweet-heat-tomato-jam it’s my husband’s favorite. This one is my favorite food52.com/recipes/12640-tomato-balsamic-jam
    Both are so good I can’t even tell you. Best thing about them is they get their sweetness from the balsamic vinegar.

    I understand you’re trying to avoid animal rennet in cheeses, but what you may not realize is that almost all plants and grains are being fertilized with animal manure, bone meal, blood meal, fish fertilizers, chicken feather meal, etc. It’s almost impossible to avoid using animal products or byproducts in the healthy growth cycle of the soil, unless, of course, you grow everything yourself with compost only. Organic or conventional agriculture is rarely vegan or vegetarian. Plants thrive on the nutrients derived from these fertilizers and crop yield and quality of future seed offspring suffers if that is eliminated.

      So she should just give up and eat animal products? It's okay for her to have standards for her food.

      @@enneirda07My point is that there are very few cruelty free plant sources if you get down to the facts of how mass scale agriculture is grown and harvested. Most people don’t know about this or the effects of monoculture. Diet is, of course, a personal choice. I do 100% agree that animal rennet should be avoided/boycotted as it’s unnecessary when other kinder options are available.

    Katie, you react like people who have allergy do when they can't have dairy or soy. lol 😆 Or any other ingredient. It differently sucks for the person who can't have the product.
