Food for Thought

Sometimes there are no substitutions

I like to eat healthy food and I think this lifestyle can be really tasty.  I am pretty good at making modifications.  For example, last night instead of using regular ground beef I used bison to make a burger.  I also incorporated lots of yummy toppings so I didn't need to had cheese.  All of the little substitutions add up to keeping my waste line from stretching horizontally.

Today, I decide I am going to checkout Purebread.  It is a new bakery based in Whistler.  There are many healthy options and the bread is all handmade.  The storefront has a great presentation and the people inside are very welcoming.  First, I am looking for a nice healthy loaf of bread.  I immediately see the seriously seedy bread and I think this is going to really good.  Second, I see these almond croissants staring at me.  They say "eat me now."  Unless I am in Europe I usually stay away from pastries because often in north american coffee shops they are rarely handmade.  I am not going to sacrifice my waistline on dry croissants.  Needless to say I leave Purebread with 2 croissants and the seedy bread.

Instantly when I can home I cut into the Seriously Seedy bread and I am very impressed. There are seeds throughout the bread and the bread is so fresh and most.  Even the crust is perfection.  It is the perfect mixture of health as well as taste!  The seriously seedy bread could satisfy seriously anyone. I leave the croissants to the side with the intent on saving them for breakfast with my boyfriend.

Two hours pass by and I am into the croissants.  I am even more pleasantly surprised than I could ever imagine.  This is worth every bite of indulgence.  For anyone wanting to try the best croissant of your life this is the one.  I do not want to divulge the entire experience of this croissant, but I must say this treat will impress the toughest critic  As I write this I have another sample just to make sure I can describe just right; yes it is a small bite of a foodie's heaven.  This croissant will leave you wanting more.

My final remark is that there are no substitutions for this decadent treat.  Even while watching your waistline it is good for the soul to take the time to enjoy great food.  This is worth every calorie.
