Good Morning World
It is 8AM in the morning. I am wondering what the birds are chirping about. The air is cool and the Florida sun not high in the sky. My husband is vacuuming, because he has been awake since 4:30.
But what I am thinking about is; how does this happen; you pain taking select a food item in the grocery store only to discover you’ve purchased the wrong one, once home?
Yesterday, while shopping for non-fat plain Greek yogurt, I examined the front of the container for the word vanilla IN THE STORE, and never saw the orange band indicating it was such, until I tasted the product this morning at home and said, “Yuck!”
I don’t care for vanilla, nor the 18 grams of sugar it contains.
So how did I miss the obvious labeling?
I was looking in the wrong place. It reminds me of that song, Looking for Love. It never occurred to me to look under the lid and around the top.
I tried hard to get it right. Really made every effort to purchase the right product.
Should I throw it out or eat it?
. . . just saying

Too bad I didn’t know this earlier. I could have bought it from you. I love vanilla.

Could you use it in a recipe? Or offer it to a neighbor? I wouldn’t want to eat it, but I don’t like to waste food.

Yes I thought of all of that. I have a recipe for Irish soda bread that needs yogurt. I hate to waste food as well and won’t throw it away. I’m put in my oatmeal and added cinnamon actually tasted good.

Toss! It’s not worth the sugar. Consider the wasted dollars an investment in your good health.

You remind me to always read the label.
I am forever trying to stall throwing something out I know I am not going to eat, until I have to throw it out. Now I push it out sooner, cutting my loss and taking in the lesson.
